Not indoor. Huge outdoor islands shaped as palm trees

Because they can, it's impressive and it put them on the map

Pajeh is right, the OP one is in Japan.

Stupid really, given that they can't be more than 500m from a real beach. LOL.

watched an intresting program about that dubai island setup , looks amazing

Pretty cool. But why pay to go in there when the beach is down the road?
Never understand those Japanese

Looks like a pretty cool place though.

I agree it is daft. But, they get to open and make money 365 days in a year.

I'll stick to the real thing. :cool:

Thats pretty cool. But like someone said... they'll be gone once global warming really kicks in!
