Palm Islands, Dubai, United Arab Emirates 🇦🇪
Constructed in 2001, the Palm Islands consist of three artificial islands: Palm Jumeirah, Deira Island, and Palm Jebel Ali, on the coast of Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
Dubai built the Palm Tree Islands to increase the coastline for tourists. Dubai is known for its sunny weather and beaches, but more than 72 km of coastline was needed to accommodate the goal of tripling the number of tourists to 15 million annually. The solution was to construct a massive island shaped like a palm tree, which would add 56 km to the coastline.
The island is designed to be a city within itself, featuring shopping centers, restaurants, hotels, and residential properties.
