What is called the Palm Islands in Dubai?

Answer information department of the "Tourism Subtlety"
If you take pictures of Dubai made from a satellite, then your eyes will have an amazing sight: images of two palms framed by crescents, and maps of the world lying on the water. This - the world-famous man-made Palm Islands (The Palm Islands) and the island of World (The World). Each of the palm-islands also has its name: Jumeirah, Jebel Ali and Deira.

These miracle-trees grew in the Persian Gulf to be built up with all sorts of shopping and entertainment complexes, restaurants, golf courses and football, water parks, private villas and hotels. But at the moment, all these plans are implemented only on one Palm - Jumeirah. Jebel Ali in the stage of sluggish development, the world is partially sold, but begins to sink slowly into the water, and the largest (in the draft) Deira so far represents a "cut", not even a "seedling."
