Atlantis Hotel, Dubai

I visited the newly opened Atlantis Hotel in Dubai. It is located in Palm Jumeriah, which is a large real estate created through land reclaimation (in the shape of a palm tree) on the Arabian Gulf. The first metro line in Dubai will be opened in April and will serve Palm Jumeriah.

Several restaurants and rooms in the hotel are built below sea level. The guests can see the fishes swimming under the sea. However, I was not able to visit this part of the hotel.

There is a large shopping mall with several restaurants showing fishes swimming in large acquariums. They give the impression of being in the lost city of Atlantis.
