40+ Jaw-dropping Sight From Dubai, the City of Superlatives

A Not-So-Miniature World Map

In the azure waters of the Persian Gulf, just off Dubai’s coast, lies an engineering marvel – The World Islands. This archipelago, meticulously shaped like a world map, isn’t nature’s creation but man-made genius. Conceptualized by Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Dubai’s ruler, these islands are the handiwork of two Dutch firms, Van Oord and Boskalis – the same masterminds behind the iconic Palm Jumeirah.

Reportedly crafted mainly from sand harvested from the coast, the islands stand as a testament to the vision of Nakheel Properties, the developer. The islands are not just another construction; they’re the UAE’s audacious stamp on the globe.
