Palm Jumeirah
The Palm Jumeirah, part of the Palm Islands development in Dubai, UAE, is an artificial archipelago on the Persian Gulf, aiming to expand Dubai's shoreline by 520 kilometers upon completion. Constructed through land reclamation by Dutch company Van Oord, it now hosts over 25,000 residents and notable destinations like The Pointe, Club Vista Mare, and Nakheel Mall. The Palm Jumeirah Monorail, spanning 5.4 kilometers, connects the island to the mainland, serving as the Middle East's first monorail system, with further integration planned with the Dubai Metro's Red Line. Construction began in 2001, with the first residential units handed over in 2006, and by 2009, 75% of properties were ready, accompanied by the opening of 28 hotels on the Crescent.
