Burj Al Arab is located on a man-made island near the Jumeirah Beach area in Dubai – “The Pearl of Arabia“. As many of you already know Burj Al Arab is the only 7 star hotel in the world.
Reclaiming the land from the sea and constructing the building took a little less than five years.
Burj Al Arab was constructed by the “WS Atkins Partners Overseas” company, with main architect Thomas Wills Wright (Nomas Towers Juffair, Bahrain, P-17 Dubai, UAE, Al Salam Tecom Tower Dubai, UAE and many others).
