Falcon City of Wonders - A Short Walk.

 ‘Falconcity of Wonders’.
The Falconcity of Wonders, announced in 2005, is a project being built in Dubai that will feature life-size replicas of the seven wonders of the world such as the Egyptian pyramids, the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, and other famous monuments such as the Eiffel Tower, the Taj Mahal and the Leaning Tower of Pisa. It is a part of Dubailand, covering an area of 100 acres (400,000 m2) with an estimated cost of $36.5 billion.
In the modern world, Dubai has emerged as a city with no parallel. A city that embraces modernity while proudly maintaining its rich cultural heritage and unique identity.
Falconcity of Wonders LLC (FCW) is a privately owned company that was founded to develop Falconcity of Wonders, a real estate mega project. Being under the umbrella of Salem Ahmad AlMoosa Enterprises, gives FCW immediate access to more than 30 years of experience in the real-estate sector.
The Residential villas of the Falconcity of Wonders are situated in the falcon wings. The Villas guarantee a superb life style and each owner has the option to choose their house design from four distinguished themes.
And to imagine that not twenty five years ago all these were desrt land . Nothing but sand and small clusters of bushes and palm tree scattered here and there.
what impact owuld this have on the whole climate system of the planet when the desert is turned into a garden?
There seem to even be an increase in the bird population since i last came here what with all the trees and bushes. No doubt there is allot of watering for the plants daily and a good amount of plant growing soil to be placed to replace sandy soil.
  
The patch outside of the fence is taken care of by the corporation maintanence while the house owners implement their own gardens. Many has done such good job at it as you can see while taking your morning walks.
 
 
What powers water have to life! Most of the vegetation and plants you see are mostly imported and not native to the area and yet they thrive especially in winter when the weather is a little cooler.
This house must belong to a private owner as so much is being inveested into the landscaping.
My son's front yard is bare as he had his ways in terms of decorating and so is his backyard.
