In Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates, you can see one of the two islands you plan to make. According to the image of the ESA, the islands will be exactly the same and the aspect they will give is evident: that of the palm.

The construction of both islands will cost 1,200 million euros. The abuse overflows, with 60 luxury hotels, 5,000 chalets and other apartments, theme parks, restaurants, sports facilities, spas, etc.

The works began in 2001 and are expected to be completed by 2008. With the use of 100 million cubic meters of stones and sands, Dubai will have 120 kilometers more coastline.

The change experienced by this coast in recent years is spectacular. ESA's satellite imagery shows this. At the end of these two palm islands, the images will also be visible.
