For those waiting for a revived glorified Babylon, and its riches, they will have to look outside of Iraq. This city surpasses the elegance, richness and majesty of ancient Babylon, as well as anything in modern Iraq as well.

Dubai is a world center of culture, banking and trade. The genius and creativity behind these structures is truly amazing. This post is just to enjoy the architecture, and the view.

The current Burj Dubai project is building the tallest building in the world. In one picture, you can actually see the curvature of the earth from the its top. This makes me dizzy just to look at it.

It reminds me a little of how the original purpose of the tower of Babel was to reach heaven, and touch God. It looks like this tower is almost there.

A few are also underwater hotels.
