Burj Al Arab Under Construction
Burj Al Arab (Tower of the Arabs) is a luxury hotel located in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. At 321 m (1,053 ft), it is the fourth tallest hotel in the world; however, 39% of its total height is made up of non-occupiable space. Burj Al Arab stands on an artificial island 280 m (920 ft) from Jumeirah beach and is connected to the mainland by a private curving bridge. The shape of the structure is designed to mimic the sail of a ship. Sometimes referred to as “the world’s only 7-Star hotel”.

How to see Palm Jumeirah
"The Palm Jumeirah is one of the huge project in the emirate of Dubai that has been made in the early 2000s.
During tours and excursions, people often ask how to see the palm. It must be admitted that can't see anything from the road.
Here are four ways, all different, to enjoy this artificial palm-shaped island.
1) Google Earth.
2) The Palm Monorail. Reached by taxi in front of the palm or the other side to the hotel Atlantis.
3) An helicopter ride.
4) A seaplane flight over Dubai.
I have a big preference for the seaplane and the 40-minute flight. It is not only the Palm Jumeirah that is discovered but The World artificial islands and its artificial islands.
Everything depends on what you can afford. If you need help for booking or if you want to integrate it in your private tour, please let me know I can organise it for you.

Guide : comment faire pour voir la Palme Jumeirah à Dubai ?
La Palme Jumeirah fait partie de ces méga projet de l'Emirat de Dubai qui ont été réalisés au début des années 2000.
Souvent au cours des tours et des excursions, la question de savoir comment voir la palme revient toujours. En effet, vue de la route, il faut avouer qu'on y comprend pas grand chose si on ne vous explique pas.
Voici quatre moyens, tous différents pour apprécier cette île artificielle en forme de palmier.
1) Google Earth.
2) Le monorail de la Palme. Accessible en taxi au pied de la palme ou de l'autre côté à l’hôtel l'Atlantis.
3) Un tour en hélicoptère.
4) Un vol en hydravion au dessus de Dubai.
J'ai une grosse préférence pour celui en hydravion car le vol de 40 minutes vaut vraiment la peine, sachant que ce n'est pas que la Palme Jumeirah que l'on découvre mais aussi The World et ses îles artificielles notamment.
Tout dépend des moyens bien évidemment et si vous avez besoin d'aide pour réserver ou si vous souhaitez intégrer cela à votre excursion, votre tour privé ou votre séjour dans les Emirats, dites-le moi et je vous organise cette excursion en toute simplicité.
Sur la photo ci-dessus, la Palme Jumierah était alors en construction et que l'on voir bien comment le tunnel pour arriver sur la couronne a été fait. Enjoy !
