One of the hottest countries in the world, the United Arab Emirates, will soon get the largest indoor snow park in the world. The developers at Abu Dhabi’s Reem Mall say that 11,600 square meters park will include a giant slide, as well as the ground for the so-called “zorbing” which for the uninitiated, involves rolling down a hill in a giant ball made of transparent plastic.
In Dubai, the Mall of the Emirates already has an indoor, snow-covered ski hill and penguin shows.
Reem Mall, anticipated to cost $1 billion, should be opened in 2018.
