The view from above. Dubai Water Canal.


The Dubai Water Canal viewed from the JW Marriott Marquis Hotel on Sheikh Zayed Road.
The Arrows indicate where the two photos were taken from this weekend.
 

The photos of the canal in Spot the Difference were taken from the point next to the long strip of greenery in the top photo showing the before and after of the construction of Tolerance Bridge. You should be able to see Tolerance Bridge in both these pictures if you look hard enough.

  1. Oh wow. You really are going to have to do a book of Dubai as it rises from the desert. I did wonder where you'd taken the top image from. Until I read the caption I thought you must have gone on a helicopter ride. Fascinating pics.

  2. What a fantastic view! The canal isn't quite like our old English canals weaving through the countryside with only just enough space for two narrowboats to pass!
