The Dubai Frame is the newest monument in Dubai and just opened this month. The frame measures 492 feet high and 305 feet wide. The two towers are connected by a bridge, which has a glass panel in the middle, offering a 360 degree view of modern Dubai on one side and the old city on the other.
The Palm Jumeirah is a man-made island in the shape of a palm tree. It is one of the largest artificial islands in the world and a triumph of human ingenuity. A monorail runs down the 'trunk' that connects to the mainland's tram system.
I took a helicopter tour flying over The Palm, The World Islands, Burj Al Arab, Burj Khalifa, Corniche Beach, Dubai Creek, Heritage Village, The Trade Souks, and Wind Towers and Mosques. It was very hazy and dusty so the pictures are not that clear.
