Developers in Dubai are reportedly planning to construct a replica of
the famous Taj Mahal, which would be over four times bigger than the
original monument.
Developers said that Taj Arabia, an imitation
of the 360-year-old marble mausoleum that took Mughal emperor Shah Jahan
almost 22 years to build, would be constructed in a span of just two
years.
The billion-dollar project will be set in the heart of the 41-million square foot Falcon City of Wonders on the Emirates Road.
Developers
said that Taj Arabia would be symbolic of 'love and romance' just like
the Taj Mahal and would celebrate the union of couples by serving as the
world's grandest wedding destination.
"Marriage is a celebration.
It needs to be announced and glorified. Currently Dubai is not regarded
as a wedding destination. People go to Bali and other exotic places to
marry. Now they will come to Taj Arabia," Gulf News quoted Arun Mehra,
Chairman of the Link Global Group, sub-developers of the mega project,
as saying.
According to the report, Taj Arabia will be a five-star
hotel property with 300 rooms, and would be flanked by seven mixed-use
buildings, two of which will have 200 serviced apartments.
"Taj
Arabia will not be a 100 per cent replica as it has a different purpose.
That said, we definitely want to create the same spirit of love and
passion in today's modern times when divorce rates are fast picking up,"
Mehra said.
"Traditionally in the UAE and the sub-continent,
marriage is not just a union of two people but also their families. The
serviced apartments beside Taj Arabia will be ideal for wedding guests
as they will have 10 large bedrooms and a hall. We want to create an
atmosphere which bonds family members," he added.
Dubai's Falcon
City of Wonders, an integrated mega city shaped to represent the falcon
which is emblem of the UAE's heritage, would include several historical
and modern icons of architecture from around the world such as the
Pyramids, Hanging Gardens, Eiffel Tower, Taj Mahal, Great Wall of China,
and Leaning Tower of Pisa, the report said.
