City of wonders

Salem Al Moosa, on his US$1.5bn Falconcity of Wonders in Dubailand: "I want to tell the world we have mastered tourism in Dubai. I want to remove obstacles and bring cultures together. We are all human, and we should all love and live alongside one another. I want to develop that symmetry of life and for everyone to live happily ever after".

Shaped after the falcon, Falconcity is a community project featuring structures based on the wonders of the world; the Pyramids, the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, the Eiffel Tower, the Taj Mahal, the Great Wall of China, the Leaning Tower of Pisa and the Lighthouse of Alexandria. The project also includes famous international destinations such as Rome, Venice, Beirut, India, and New York.
