Ferrari World "in Abu Dhabi

Resting in the UAE, you should not overlook the "Ferrari Park" in Abu Dhabi, on the artificial island of Yas. The Ferrari World Park, which has received visitors since autumn 2010, is the largest theme park in the world located in the building. On the area it occupies 200,000 m², and the dome of the building rises to a height of 45 m.

The Ferrari World Park is of particular interest to the representatives of the male sex, with absolutely different ages - from kindergarten to retirement. This is understandable, because even the name is clear: it is dedicated to the legendary Formula -1 races and everything that has something to do with them. In addition, it is the only Ferrari park on Earth. On its territory there is a car museum, which presents all the models of the legendary Ferrari and various attractions in miniature, as well as many entertainment attractions.

Ferrari Park: Fun Offered

The Ferrari World Abu Dhabi complex is more spectacular, visitors get impressions mostly from catchy designs and beautiful cars. But there are attractions, and such that some tourists come to Abu Dhabi specifically for them. Guests of the “Ferrari World” complex can experience vivid emotions by taking a ride at great speed along a roller coaster, flying up in a special capsule or flying in the cockpit. Also, tourists can safely ride on a small car in a separate area dedicated to Italy, and enjoy the surrounding views.

And on 3D rides, what is happening seems so real and reliable that you unwittingly begin to believe in its authenticity. For an additional fee, you can drive even on the “legend-Ferrari” - this will appeal to both fans of extreme sports and fans of beautiful cars.

Entertainment in the park "Ferrari World" is for children, but not in such a large number. For the youngest - simple roundabouts and climbing. There is a copy of the race track with pit stops and signs along the track, which indicate turns - the speed here is small, like a pedestrian.

Of course, many tourists try to take a photo as a memento of their holiday in the Ferrari Park in the United Arab Emirates, especially near popular and extreme rides.

Fiorano G. T. Challenge
Visitors to the Ferrari Park, who did not dare to ride the Formula Rossa, will undoubtedly appreciate this roller coaster. Although in terms of speed, the “Fiorano G. T. Challenge” is much inferior, but they are fascinating in their own way.
There are two tracks, each of which travels through the trailer at different speeds. A feature of this attraction in the Ferrari Park in Abu Dhabi is that the parallel tracks constantly intersect, and one car or another rides in front.

G-Force
Without a doubt, “G-Force” deserves the attention of guests of the park “Ferrari World” Abu Dhabi. We are talking about a tower of glass height of 60 m, located in the roof of the building. Sitting on their seats, visitors think that here, as in similar rides, they will slowly climb up and then drop sharply. But everything happens exactly the opposite: first a sharp rise upwards, and then an unhurried descent. Largely due to the fact that the tower is located on the roof, and that its glass walls create a magnificent view, it seems as if the ride will end in ejection into the air. “G-Force” is also interesting because it allows you to explore the entire island of Yas from a height.

Burj Khalifa

Burj Khalifa - the tallest building in the world! The height of the skyscraper, located in Dubai - 828 meters, it is 163 floors. Its shape resembles a stalagmite. The opening ceremony took place on January 4, 2010.

Burj Khalifa immediately planned as the tallest building in the world. His design height was kept secret.



Burj Khalifa was immediately planned as the tallest skyscraper, but its design height was kept secret. This was done in the event that a building of greater height was designed somewhere - then adjustments could be made to the project. The Dubai Tower was conceived as a “city within a city” - with its own lawns, boulevards and parks. The total cost of the facility is about 1.5 billion dollars.
Inside the Burj Khalifa complex is a hotel, apartments, offices and shopping centers. The building has three separate entrances: the hotel, the apartment and office space. On the 43rd and 76th floors there are gymnasiums, swimming pools, viewing platforms with a jacuzzi. On the 122nd floor there is a restaurant “Atmosphere” with 80 seats - it is located at the highest altitude in the world.

The highest observation deck of the Burj Khalifa is located on the 148th floor at an altitude of 555 meters. Two more sites are located on the 124th (472 meters) and 125th floors.

The air inside the building is not only cooled, but also flavored thanks to special membranes. This fragrance was created specifically for Burj Khalifa. Glasses do not allow dust and repel the sun's rays, allowing you to maintain the optimum temperature in the building, besides they are washed daily. Especially for the Burj Khalifa, a special grade of concrete was developed that can withstand temperatures up to +50 ° C. The concrete mixture was placed only at night, and ice was added to the solution.
The building has 57 elevators. In this case, only the service elevator rises from the first floor to the last. Residents and visitors skyscraper move between floors with transfers. Burj Khalifa elevators reach speeds of up to 10 m / s.

At the foot of the skyscraper in an artificial lake is a musical fountain Dubai. It is illuminated by 6,600 light sources and 50 color spotlights. The length of the fountain is 275 m, and the height of the jets reaches 150 meters. The fountain has musical accompaniment.

Facts  about Burj Khalifa

The construction of a skyscraper began in 2004 and proceeded at a speed of 1-2 floors per week.

Every day, up to 12,000 workers were involved in the construction.

The creation of the tower took about 320 thousand square meters of concrete and more than 60 thousand tons of steel reinforcement.

The tower holds about 900 apartments, the hotel has 304 rooms, 35 floors given for offices. In three underground floors there is a parking for 3000 cars.

Entry 6:My test Taking Strategies

From my point of view, PSM is a combination of all the ways, means, forms and methods of achieving a person’s life goals. Every person wants to achieve something in life. Aware of his needs, he sets and solves certain tasks, thus achieving his goals.

The nature of actions for setting and achieving goals varies from one person to another and changes over time. However, these processes are similar, which allows us to formulate a uniform toolkit, analyzing information on individual ways of developing and implementing life strategies.

Entry 5: Critical analysis of online language learning resources

SlovoUch

The creators of the Russian project SlovoUch have developed their own methodology for learning English, according to which new words are remembered only in context. The site team has compiled special lists of words that should be run at least occasionally. With this site you can learn foreign words at any time convenient for you. The system itself will offer to create a personal dictionary that you will replenish in any convenient way for you. Users can create dictionaries not only for English, but also for other foreign languages.

Language learning occurs in the process of regular reading of tests that are presented on the site. However, users are also given the opportunity to upload their own content to their account. Any incomprehensible word in the text should be clicked in order for the translation to appear, and the word itself automatically falls into the user's online dictionary.

Currently, the English database contains 2500 words, German, French and Italian - approximately 1000-1500 each.

Palm Island

Palm Jumeirah (Palm Jumeirah) - the island wonder of the world, created by human hands. An artificial island that repeats the shape of a palm tree with sixteen symmetrical “leaves”, where expensive villas, hotels, a water park and many kilometers of beaches are located, is a direct proof of the greatness of the Emirate. It is worth visiting here at least in order to evaluate what science, progress and money are capable of.

The Palm Jumeirah archipelago is small compared to its two sisters - Palm Jebel Ali and Palm Deira - but the first of its kind is the famous symbol of the United Arab Emirates, along with the Parus hotel (Burj Al Arab) and Burj Khalifa (Burj-Khalifa).

History of creation

In 2001, Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashi Al Maktoum decided to expand the coastline and create a paradise resort in the waters of the Persian Gulf, while not using concrete and metal structures. At first, creating a structure to withstand the waves and storms, while using only sand and boulders, seemed an impossible task, but they were not going to retreat.
The construction of the Palm Island began. Five kilometers of the breakwater appeared, designed to protect the island from the storm Shamil. Then the construction of the island itself began, “leaflet” by “leaflet” - a huge island slowly and with difficulty appeared.


Additional complexity was created by the fact that the sand of the Arabian deserts was not suitable for construction - it is too small and easily washed out. Therefore, tremendous efforts had to get tons of sand from the bottom of the Persian Gulf and deliver it to the coast. This very sand and stones used during construction would be enough to build a 2.5 meter wall around the globe.

After 5 years of human talent, perseverance and science won. Palm Island was ready to receive residents in 2006 already. On the "leaves" took their place luxurious villas and hotels. Restaurants, parks, shopping and entertainment complexes, water parks, as well as beach clubs are located on the palm trunk. Three months later, an amazing coral reef with two submerged F-100 aircraft was added to this splendor in order to attract divers and strengthen the island’s barrier reef.

The reverse side of luxury

Despite the greatness and beauty of the island, environmentalists are not too happy about such changes in the flora and fauna of the Persian Gulf. After all, such changes are undoubtedly fraught with consequences. The authorities responded to numerous demands to protect marine life and built up part of the coast with artificial reefs, moreover, they promised that soon they plan to transfer palm trees to environmentally friendly energy sources in order not to pollute the environment.

A significant problem was the stagnation of water in the bays of the archipelago. The breakwater is vital for protection, but undoubtedly interferes with the renewal of water. Despite attempts to cope with this problem, the visible result has not yet been achieved.


Last but not least, durability. How many can stand such a huge, but not strange, fragile Palm Island Jumeirah under climate change, rising water levels and raging waves, washing sand directly from under their feet? Project creators reassure investors that in the next 800 years there is nothing to worry about, and you can safely acquire a piece of heaven on earth.

Artificial town of Dubai

Dubai is the business card of the Emirates. It is on Dubai's achievements that the rest of the world imagines the Arab "miracle in the Sands". About this metropolis on the edge of the desert, everyone has heard something. For example, what is the most modern metro. Or better shopping. Or the tallest skyscraper. Or - the most luxurious hotel with its own Oceanarium, the opening of which spent more fireworks than at the Olympic games in Beijing. It's all here, and it's all true, though outdated. After all, Dubai is changing every day, and everything you know about it today, tomorrow will require at least "information update". About 15 percent of all tower cranes in the world are now working at Dubai construction sites.
Earlier in Dubai came for the beaches. They were later joined by shopping at giant and almost everything which can fit malls. Today people come here to look at architectural,landscape and design miracles, which only the imagination of Arab sheikhs is capable of. For example, the artificial Palm Islands, which increased the coastline of Dubai by more than 1000 kilometers.
Most of the beaches in Dubai are paid. Especially popular are the beach complexes Jumeirah beach Park and al Mamzar, where you can sunbathe all day, swim, barbecue and relax in the shady parks. Among the free beaches you can note Jumeirah Open beach - with a great view of the seven-star hotel "Burj al Arab". Almost all of Dubai's city beaches close at sunset. Some of them are "women's days" (most often on Saturdays), when the entrance for men is prohibited. Remember that on the municipal beaches of Dubai can not drink alcohol and is strictly forbidden to sunbathe Topless!
