The Ferris wheel near the Marina Mall was installed on the embankment in November 2015. You can make several turns, because it moves quite quickly.

One of the towers of the Etihat complex is Jumeirah: below there are many branded stores and boutiques, on the minus ground floor there is a grocery supermarket.

As soon as people do not call this unusual round skyscraper in the form of a seashell: a puck, a coin, a large mirror, even a "desert tablet". It seems that what could be simpler than a circle, but the building does not look very simple, it seems to be without beginning and without end.
