Architectural Photography - Week 20 | "Capture, Click, Compete!" | Dub AI

The Emirate of Dubai is a vivid example of what dreams turn into and how, with the help of modern technology, there are no longer any limits to human imagination. In 1991, its capital was a small settlement whose inhabitants made a living primarily from fishing, pearling, and other similar ocean-related activities. And in less than 20 years, this wasteland has become the modern oasis of the Middle East, and the whole world! Dubai is currently one of the most visited tourist destinations offering ultra-luxury services and accommodation.

Most of Expo City Dubai is free to visit and walk around. The famous Al Wasl Plaza, the Surreal water attraction, the Vision Pavilion, as well as playgrounds and merry-go-rounds are available for visitors.

In the near future, the renovated exhibition center will also be open again for school trips. Tenants and visitors to the area can get around on golf carts, scooters and bicycles, which will support the emirate's sustainable development strategy. The town is environmentally friendly, thus Dubai will take another step towards building a green economy.

Much of the infrastructure is designed to support a healthy lifestyle. The site presents intelligent multimedia solutions that will allow people to travel through time and space

Here you can enjoy numerous provincial pavilions and delicious dishes from all corners of the globe. There is an opportunity to unleash your tech side and enjoy entertainment like no other.

The area of Expo City Dubai is 4.38 sq. km and is part of the general plan of Dubai until 2040. The idea is to have a high-tech city of the future, which will become a platform for environmentally oriented enterprises and start-ups. Visitors and residents of Expo City Dubai are committed to the principle of environmental ethics and have completely stopped the use of single-use plastic products. It is also the first very well certified area in the Middle East.

This location houses the exhibition center where various summits, conferences and concerts are held as part of the Expo. A special metro line leads to Expo City Dubai, which was built for the exhibition. Al Wasl Plaza's dome has set a Guinness World Record. The famous Al Wasl Plaza entered the Guinness Book of Records as the largest interactive dome in the world. Around its perimeter are 252 laser projectors that display a colorful 360-degree immersive show projected both inside and outside the dome.

The program includes high-tech presentations (such as interacting with the Al Wasl dome using augmented reality systems), festivals, sports and wellness initiatives. From December 8 to January 7, the Expo City area will be enveloped in a New Year's atmosphere. Santa Claus and his elves will transform Expo City into a Winter Wonderland during the Christmas season. Entry to Expo City, Winter Wonderland and Santa's Town is completely free, even dogs are allowed, but tickets will be required for some events and seminars.

Parents can take their little ones to meet the real Santa and Snow White, take pictures with giant gingerbread men, see a snow globe at Al Wasl Plaza, sing carols or go ice skating. A 16-meter Christmas tree decorated with toys and garlands is expected to be installed in Al Wasl Plaza. Organizers are promising gingerbread making workshops, wreaths and ornaments, as well as hot chocolate, mulled wine and pie stalls.

The area will be transformed into a magical winter wonderland with an ice climbing wall, cable car and a letter box where you can drop a letter to Santa Claus. Handmade gifts will also be available, such as a one-of-a-kind teddy bear from the Build-a-Bear Workshop.
