10 Things You Didn'T Know About The Burj Al Arab

The Terrace is the first man-made luxury beach facility of its kind

The 10,000sqm luxury platform, which features two pools, cabanas and a 1,120sqm beach area (for which 1,000 tonnes of white sand were imported) opened in 2017. The Terrace was constructed in a cruise ship and yacht production facility in Finland before being shipped to Dubai in six pieces. Since then, its two pools have been adorned with 10 million gold and azure mosaic tiles.
