The Plexiglas(树脂玻璃) walls and bubble-shaped dome ceilings give guests amazing views of underwater life. 阿联酋迪拜水母酒店将是全世界第一座真正意义上的水底酒店，它的构思来自科幻小说《海底20000里》。这座名为Hydropolis的豪华饭店将由三部分组成：地面站——用于接待顾客；隧道——所有人员和物资将从这里抵达饭店的主体部分 。客人到达这个“水晶宫”，先要穿越一条长约510米、直通海底酒店的树胶玻璃隧道。然后在海下选择自己喜好的房间入住。比如客人可以躺在“水泡套房”中，通过透明的“墙壁”和“天花板”观赏外面五彩缤纷的海洋生物。每一间客房都是用超豪华高级材料进行装修，内部的音乐和气味可随意调控；另外，酒店还建有潜艇泊靠码头。除此之外，而为了这个水下城市，酒店在陆地上专门修造一片人工沙滩、一台可制造人工云雾的巨形烟雾机，以保护客人免受烈日的暴晒。 The World’s Biggest Mall---The Dubai Mall 迪拜购物中心 The Dubai Mall is the regions premier shopping, lifestyle and entertainment destin
