Aerial Flight Over DUBAI

I have posted this in UAE section also, but decided to post again to make it accessible for more people, since i think many of you would like to get an overview over Dubai

Video now available

252MB! 21 minutes, apologize the shaking it is really hard to keep a small camera steady in the helicopter..

OK here we go:

First, those are around 150 pictures,

if anyone of you has special requests, i have some 300 left showing roughly the same, but might show what you look for.

Second, all of them were taken at 8MP, so zooming in is possible, again, close ups of anything, just ask.

Third, i increased Contrast on all the pictures to see more details, however quality lacks. Again, i can post the original images if you want any specific one.

But now, gentlemen, please prepare for start - we are going upwards

Les Comparto la siguiente Información, Cortesía del Usuario Fox-Tale de skyscrapercity.com!! :dedo_arriba:
http://www.skyscrapercity.com/

I visited Dubai in 2004 and 2006.

Many tall buildings were under construction and some were already
completed but I saw few people on the street or in those buildings..
especially during the dayime.
I went to some huge shopping malls but selection was neither sophisticated nor impressive either..but the building itself was beautiful and impressive.

I noticed majority of buildings in dubai are residential, low-height ones, and only part of the city has tall buildings and hotels..
because only those tall buildings were focused on TV or magazines, I
realized that those tall buildings are only part of Dubai.

One thing I was disappointed was poorly organized highway roads which needs a long distance for u-turn, and roads not designed for disabled or pedestrians etc. They looked beautiful, but was not functional.

And a friend of mine, who is a professional architect from Japan, said
when he visited Dubai he noticed some of the tall buildings in dubai are so poorly constructed that some of
them are some milimeters off from the vertical and might decline more in the future. I hope those buildings will be safe in case of earthquakes or heavy rain(sorry maybe those never happen in Dubai?)

So I hope it will be more efficient, functional and safe city in the future, rather than sticking to its superficial looks...

However, it seems that Dubai has developed quite a lot since my last visit,
so I would like to visit it someday after those island projects complete!
I'm interested in those artificial islands and under-water hotel and think they are great!:)

After all, Dubai has a huge potential I think..
