For a city that has always had one eye on the future and has been way ahead of its time, it comes as no surprise that Dubai gives a glimpse into what it will look like in 2071. The city is home to several engineering marvels, with the gigantic and towering Burj Khalifa looking head and shoulders above the rest. But, with all due credit to the world’s tallest building in the world, the compliment of the ‘most beautiful building in the world’ goes to the iconic Museum of the Future. And that stirring endorsement comes from none other than Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of UAE and Ruler of Dubai.
The uniquely shaped architectural wonder takes visitors through a spell-binding journey into the future and what it will be like in 2071.
The exterior of the torus-shaped building, which is powered by solar energy, is engraved with inspirational quotes from Sheikh Mohammed in the form of Arabic calligraphy, one of which reads: "The future belongs to those who can imagine it, design it, and execute it. It isn't something you await, but rather create."
