HYDROPOLIS is a new underwater hotel in Dubai and from the looks of it, it will be one of the new wonders of the world along with another fabulous project currently being developed there as well, The World.

Currently under construction in Dubai, Hydropolis is the
world’s first luxury underwater hotel. It will include three elements:
the land station, where guests will be welcomed, the connecting tunnel,
which will transport people by train to the main area of the hotel, and
the 220 suites within the submarine leisure complex.
It is one
of the largest contemporary construction projects in the world,
covering an area of 260 hectares, about the size of London’s Hyde Park.
“Hydropolis
is not a project; it’s a passion,” enthuses Joachim Hauser, the
developer and designer of the hotel. His futuristic vision is about to
take shape 20m below the surface of the Arabian Gulf, just off the
Jumeirah Beach coastline in Dubai. The £300 million, 220-suite hotel is
due to open at the end of 2007 and will incorporate a host of
innovations that will take it far beyond the original blueprint for an
underwater complex worthy of Jules Verne.
