That's one heck of a sandcastle

Dubia Land, as well as the rest of Dubai, is proof of the old adage, "if you build it, they will come!"

^^ How come you've turned so negative all of a sudden? Sure there's some crap stuff going up but there's also some of the best projects in the world. They may have a good few problems but think of where this place was 50 years ago and where it is now, and where it'll be in 50 years.

No doubt they'll learn a lot from this boom, what works and what doesn't. There'll definitely be mistakes made but not everything is a mistake.

BTW they hired the original architect of the petronas to design the largest hotel in bawadi, the one with all the replicas. I can imagine a project like this could ruin his career if he wasn't careful, he'll probably do everything in his power to get them NOT to build replicas. Who knows though

I find it kind of ironic that they have an Eco-Tourism World described as "a natural world marvelling at the beauty of our planet, the Eco-Tourism World will comprise a series of nature and desert-based attractions integrated within their desert parkland surrounds" when they are undoubtedly (like the rest of us) destroying a large piece of the world in order to build this place.
