Out of this world architecture - Dubai
The amount of money and opulence in the middle east is amazing. It seems that Dubai is becoming the playground for the rich. And so, Dubai is becoming a world center of innovative architecture.
* Burj Al Arab, currently the tallest hotel in the world. It is billed as the world's first 7 star hotel and has a unique sail-shaped architecture. See also the Wikipedia Link
Where do you think the world's tallest building will be? The U.S? Malaysia, Taiwan, or China? How about Dubai?
* Burj Dubai (see also Burj Dubai on Wikipedia ) to be completed in 2008, this is expected to be the World's Tallest Skyscraper when it's done.
* Al Burj is another tall Dubai skyscraper whose height is still unknown, and may possibly compete with Burj Dubai for the tallest building title.
Remember the underwater city of Atlantis? Stuff that dreams are made of. Imagine the beginnings of that, an underwater hotel in Dubai.
* Hydropolis which will be built about 44 feet underwater. See also this link
Perhaps the most amazing project of all- the Palm Islands. This project aims to build a whole series of islands in the ocean into a palm-shaped design, and building residences there. See also this link

Now you know where all that oil and commerce money is going. And yet recently the saudi arabian stock market collapsed and dropped $400 billion!
My guess is that the middle east will implode with all this new found cash and nowhere to put it except in a variety of burj's!!
