Atlantis, The Palm

This is the monumental gate of the Atlantis, The Palm hotel, situated on Palm Jumeirah, a manmade island in the shape of a palm tree in the Gulf. It’s worth looking at https://www.atlantisthepalm.com from the hotel’s website for a view of the hotel and Palm Jumeirah. It is much more spectacular from the air.
