If you're looking to see the world, be it the Great Wall of China, the Empire State Building or anything in between, Dubai will be the place to visit as the city boasts it's Expo 2020 miniature recreation exhibit, a fascinating suite of landmark recreations painstakingly constructed for your viewing pleasure. Dubbed Mini World Park and promising to be an entertaining attraction, the new mini park is just one of Dubai's coming attractions.

A tourist attraction boasting miniature recreations of iconic world landmarks including the Empire State Building, the Great Wall of China and even the Burj Khalifa is set to open in Dubai as part of the emirate’s Expo 2020 strategy.

Mini World Park, which was approved by Dubai ruler Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum this week, will also feature odes to Niagara Falls, Mount Rushmore, Rome’s Colosseum, and many other recognisable natural and manmade monuments.
