Wind towers sit beside glittering skyscrapers, desert dunes roll into green golf courses whilst luxury yachts sail the wind alongside traditional dhows. Against a backdrop of a carefully preserved heritage, Dubai is building a visionary future. The world’s tallest tower, Burj Khalifa, has been completed, The Palm is a trio of man-made projects, and the first since the Great Wall of China to be visible from space.
