There is hardly anything in this world which Dubai does not have. The fascinating city is now set make an indoor city with temperature control and world’s largest mall and many more. Well, the fascinating Dubai is just going to be more mind blowing.
Dubai is planning to build a temperature-controlled city featuring the world’s largest mall and an indoor park, as well as hotels, health resorts and theatres, the developer said.
Already home to one of the globe’s biggest indoor shopping complexes, Dubai Mall, the glitzy emirate known for its love of grandiose projects said it is now planning to build the “Mall of the World.”, the largest mall of the world.
The all-pedestrian complex would occupy a total area of 48 million square feet (4.45 million square meters), said Dubai Holding, the developer owned by Dubai ruler Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid al-Maktoum.
The seven-kilometer (4.35 mile)-long promenades connecting the facilities would also be covered and air-conditioned during summer, it added.
Dubai hopes the “Mall of the World” can attract more than 180 million visitors each year and will be the World’s largest mall.
The emirate is known for its numerous malls and many hotels, including the Dubai Mall, touted as the world’s largest shopping, leisure and entertainment destination. It is also home to the world’s tallest tower, Burj Khalifa.
Dubai has established itself as a global hub for air transport and transit trade, as well as a regional financial centre.
And it beat off opposition from Brazil, Russia and Turkey in November to win the right to host the World Expo trade fair in 2020.
The emirate’s economy was hit in 2009 by the global financial crisis, but it has since made a strong comeback, thanks to growth in the trade, transport and tourism sectors.
There is no doubt that Dubai has changed the dimension of the infrastructure. The planned programme would be another milestone for the city and the world will again be amused to see the World’s largest mall.
