The National - Abu Dhabi,United Arab Emirates

Yet, unlike its predecessors, Dubai's new US$11bn (Dh40.4bn) canal is being dug solely for its value to property development. On its banks a new city will rise with museums, hotels, apartment buildings, villas, shops – and a population of 1.5 million people.
