Dubai is famous for its soaring skyline – and that’s not the only feat of engineering to capture the world’s imagination. Built from reclaimed land in a series of artificial archipelagos, Palm Jumeirah is shaped like a palm tree when viewed from above.

Palm Jumeirah is a worldwide symbol of Dubai’s energy, growth, and ambition. The truly iconic development stretches out into the Arabian Gulf in the shape of a date palm – the national plant of the United Arab Emirates.
