How Dubai's fantasy skyline tumbled to earth

The £15m grand opening of Dubai's latest luxury development can't mask the emirate's building crisis forever, writes Steve Rose
When I finished watching the video, my mind was just full of “wow”. Who will remember the economic crisis in Dubai, after seeing the incredible fireworks show. The manager said “ compared with fifty billions which they costed to construct the hotel, seven billions won’t be thought too over”. That was a truth. Because I think fifty billions was much more unbelievable. Though they cost so much money to attract tourists and the fact that the show was really beautiful, I don’t think they will get the equivalence. Maybe they will. That takes long time, though. Furthermore there are few people who have the ability to go. They need wealthy people, but wealthy people became less and less because of the economic crisis around the world. Most of there hotel, however, was constructed for those wealthy families. I think they should try another progam which can also attract the middle class tourists.
Dubai is a nation which ceated lot of amazing thing. Even if they face the crises, they continue to make the records. No matter what they will become, we can’t forget every spectacular they made.
