Watch: There is now a WATERFALL in Dubai!

If you are travelling along Sheikh Zayed Road and spot a waterfall at the Dubai Canal, don't be surprised.
The authorities started filling up the canal a few days back, and now they have introduced a waterfall, which is still in its testing phase.
The Dh2 billion Dubai Water Canal, which stretches 3.2km from the Business Bay Canal up to the Arabian Gulf via the Shaikh Zayed Road, Al Wasl Road and Jumeirah Road, was unveiled on October 2, 2013.

Once completed, it will be six metres deep and will be crossed by eight-metre high bridges. Surrounding the Canal are new public places and facilities with a total area of 80,000 square metres with private marinas for boats and a trade centre at the entrance of the project.

There will also be a shopping centre, four hotels, 450 restaurants, luxury housing, walkways and cycle paths. Modern water transport means will serve the water front, resulting in improved quality of water in the Dubai Creek.
