SAEDNEWS: Dubai’s Indoor Ski Resort: A Look at the Artificial Ski Slope and Its Stunning Views
According to Saednews, In the electronic age, it is the Arabs who are undertaking extraordinary and astonishing projects. The United Arab Emirates' ski resort in the commercial and tourist city of Dubai is a clear example of these remarkable achievements. Thanks to their enormous oil wealth, the Arabs now believe that almost anything is possible—even bringing the cold climate of the Alps into the middle of the desert!
This ski resort, equipped with extensive recreational and safety facilities, is located on Sheikh Zayed Road, on the third floor of one of Dubai's largest and most elegant shopping malls, known as the Mall of the Emirates.
Interestingly, the people of the UAE are not traditionally familiar with snow. The following pictures show the Mall of the Emirates ski resort, which operates every day throughout the year, even when temperatures outside exceed 50°C.
Ski Dubai opened in December 2005. It was the first indoor ski resort in the Middle East and the third indoor ski resort in the world.
Its slopes range from 80 to 85 metres in length, and the facility can accommodate up to 1,500 visitors. The indoor temperature is kept sufficiently cold and comfortable for winter sports.
People of all ages, from beginners to experienced snow enthusiasts, can enjoy snow sports throughout the year or simply play in the snow for fun.
The complex also features a snow park covering 30,000 square feet, described in the original article as the world's largest indoor snow park.
Visitors can rent various types of equipment, including ski clothing, ski boots and socks, skis, ski poles, and children's helmets.
The St. Moritz Café and Restaurant serves a variety of international dishes inside the snow park. Another dining venue, Avalanche Café and Restaurant, offers sandwiches, soups, beverages, and desserts near the middle of the ski slope, catering to visitors taking a break from skiing.
The complex also includes a ski and snowboard school where visitors can receive professional instruction.
