By 2010 Dubai will have its oil reserves tapped out. That’s according to the Economist. And by that time, it will become the center of the world. That’s according to me. 

Let’s begin with the appetizers…
Hydropolis. The world’s first ever underwater resort and hotel.
The World. A resort artificially made to form the islands of the world
Burj Dubai. Will be the world’s tallest building by the time of its completion
Al Burj. Will be taller than Burj Dubai when completed.
The Dancing Towers. They look so.
EP 07 Tower. The towers fluid-like shape is meant to represent Duba’s relationship with the water.
The Dubai Pearl
Abu Dhabi convention center.
And now, to the main course.
The Sama Dubai | Dubai Towers
“The four towers, ranging from 54 to 97 floors, are clustered to form a choreographed sculpture, representing the movement of candlelight”
Finally, the unbelievable – The Rotating Tower. Just believe it.
