Forget Disney World, the upcoming Dubai Parks and Resorts, spread over 25 million square feet is going to be your new dream destination. I suppose for $2.8 BILLION it better be.
According to the project’s Web site, “Dubai Parks and Resorts is where the best of the east meets the best of the west to create a world of fun and adventure unlike any other.”
Of that there is no doubt.
The entire plan calls for three theme parks and a water park – motiongate Dubai, Bollywood Parks Dubai, LEGOLAND Dubai and the LEGOLAND Water Park. There will be over 100 rides and attractions, a 503-room hotel plus a retail, dining and entertainment district which also includes a Taj Mahal-inspired theater.
The park and resort is scheduled to open in October 2016 so get ready to book your flight because Mashable says that they hope to attract 20 million visitors by 2020.
Check out some of the amazing new architectural model photos of the park over at Mashable.
