Well when u have views of sand everywhere, it is obvious that you would prefer living along the coast and water bodies. I'm glad that the seas water was let in instead of building new land out of the sea. Quite promising project 👍🏻🌠
Im living for 5 years here in Kuwait and I always hear this place, never been there, but my friends have. this place is popularly known as chalet to the expats. because it is a place for vacation and water activities. it is promising and I hope to go there soon.
Really glad you made this video. I saw a documentary years and years ago about this. Emphasis on the cranes dropping metal weights over and over to compact the sand. Then suddenly nobody reports on the progress so far .... Ironically watched your vid on the uae artificial islands vid last night and thought to myself i wonder whatever happened to the Kuwaiti project. Low and behold 20 hours later i have my answer
@@86samsky on a number of occasions, i have been discussing issues with friends and family verbally and then mysteriously Google had them in my RUclips suggestions... It's uncanny
@@Anti-socialSocialClub yeah same thing here. The worst bit is when they target adverts. Recently moved home and was talking to my wife saying i want to get some new lampshades for the living room. Few hours later all my Facebook ads are for lampshades. Never once looked online for them it was a spur of the moment thing walking down a high street.
They are digging in sand which means they aren't really hurting much but if the US did we would have to destroy whole ecosystems so prolly not a good idea
@@missourimongoose7643 Yeah, I don't think it's really necessary for the USA to do that. There are probably plenty of already pre-developed or abandoned lands that could be repurposed if necessary. Unless the purpose is to create coastal towns, but that would also need other incentives like reducing boating and/or ship transport restrictions.
its a good thing Imo, if more area in middle east have something worth visit, the whole area will have more pulls. people will visit several countries at once. Saudi Arabia have some gorgeous nature and interesting project as well. I'm not from middle east but I hope they will unite in the future like EU and we can visit from one country to another easily. My other hope they will build more buildings that is authentic to their culture instead of the modern ones, I think people are tired of modern building cause they are everywhere. Anything authentic will add more to their values
Now this is smart, instead of pouring sands on the sea to build an artificial island, they digged their own land so the sea water can enter which will result similar with building an artificial island without destroying the biodiversity..
It's kind of a bummer that they drained the swamps and got rid of them. Most places build around natural environments, especially when ecosystems are so hard to come by in the desert. I like the idea, but it's quite pedestrian. It looks like a small neighborhood. I also have concerns about how well it will recirculate the water. Even if it's not immediately successful, it can probably be amended or improved.
Pedestrian is good. Cars are cars. Reasons: 1) It's better for small businesses as people don't need to find a spot for parking to go to that shop. 2) You are able to get some form of exercise by walking to places, and its free. 3) It's much better for the environment as you don't need to buy a car (electric cars also causes pollution during the manufacturing process), 4) Plenty of human interaction to make it feel more a sense of community in the city. However one major drawback is that since the country is located in the desert. Walking under the very hot sun sucks, especially during the summer months. Solution could be trees and public transport. Also I don't mean they should ban cars.
so it is here in kuwait where one youtube channel got the idea of digging instead of filling to make the artificial islands in Dubai. he was hating so much on dubai that nothing holds true in his statements
Do they have any idea what the latest `dire ` sea level rise scenarios are now we got better measurements of what's happening underneath thwaites glacier and Greenland...?
A small country with law GDP are booming developing mega cities and infrastructure on desert and created jobs .what about the big countries with high income and have suitable lands, were are the money taken to.(someones offshore accounts) " I love my leaders"..........
This is more intelligent designed than the palm tree island, or the world artificial archipelago, wile those projects are exposed to marine erosion, this project is protected because is created inland !
If they can spend this much money rather than building this concrete jungles they should plant more trees. Trees bring a total ecosystem with them which will give the place more natural beauty and also cool it down
It's desert so the sand is not suitable to grow trees. They did this project to decrease the temperature by taking the sea to land .because people weren't living in that area because of extreme temperature
@@PCthesecond Makes me angry when stupid people dont listen to what the video says and then talk about it. It clearly said they considered even the highest levels of water rise predicted in the future.
@@drpk6514 well sorry but studies have been done that say the entire thing is sinking at upto half an inch a year, either way the project is ridiculous, just a huge vanity project for the mega rich.
No, they are like many cities in developing countries are preparing for what I call the new colonization. I have been saying to people that European countries & the US is going under economically and thus many countries will be unbearable for a good living in the coming decades. My own believe is that will lead to many countries be in civil war like state where the people will be protesting harshly against their governments…this will naturally cause a big wave of people to move to other countries which is why you see crazy new developments happening especially in Asia. China has built 20+ complete cities that are not even needed, and it’s famously known as ghost cities…other countries are building non needed new area’s & cities in a fast rapid way which tells me that they know what’s coming. The near future will be grim for the western world…I hope I am wrong but I have a big feeling that this is the shift to the new world.
When “everything” has to be brought to this place... looks like a huge waste of money. But if you’re rich enough to allow you to be stupid. Then reality is irrelevant unless the loss of your money because the reality then you quickly smarten up and move on and look for any excuse you can cling to, to camouflage your idiocy

@Lee Morris unless your energy needs are being met by a 100% renewable energy resource, then you sir should self ban yourself from using the internet, or vehicular transportation or buying clothes, or purchasing groceries for sustenance. Since the public use of natural oil and gas plays a large part in facilitating these amenities that we rely on for our everyday lives in this modern society of which you live in.
This make more sense rather than makin an artificial island on the sea
They use the dugged soil to fill the artificial island🙃
Yes!!
It would be incredible to see trees and wild life thriving in this area. I really hope they succeed with their goal 👊
Well when u have views of sand everywhere, it is obvious that you would prefer living along the coast and water bodies. I'm glad that the seas water was let in instead of building new land out of the sea. Quite promising project 👍🏻🌠
I have been there, for around 3 years with the adjacent Ras Al-Zour refinery project. It's massive, mega-size project

This is beautiful United States should think about doing some stuff like this around all of our coast lines

The United States should start to get real cityplanners! Have you looked att Chicago? Strait roads and houses close to each other.
Are the videos of all the corals and fishes in this video from the same area or some stock footage of a marine life far far away?
Thank you for this video! 🙏
5:15 makes sense. Nowadays only they can do this much ambitious projects.
that's amazing. Great job Kuwait
Great project! Dubai will have many rivals in the near future.
Competition will result in prosperity

True they have to reduce dependency on oil to increased investment on property
They built those artificial islands were nobody wants to live, and now this. Crazy
This is Kuwait, the artificial islands are in the United Arab Emirates; different countries
Thanks 4 considering my home 🇰🇼
Make video about El gouna city in Egypt

Well, some Muricans really think that cars are very vital 🙄.
And how about the natural ecosystem of Manhattan. D*umbass
It was stated in the video that 90 percent of the water circulates in less that 10 days. That's pretty good.
not really a swamp it was a very low life salt marsh with few things growing and living so might have been a good trade off
Perhaps they can use the water to flow over the buildings and streets to help with cooling
Nice 👌
Ótimo 💎👍
awesome
so it is here in kuwait where one youtube channel got the idea of digging instead of filling to make the artificial islands in Dubai. he was hating so much on dubai that nothing holds true in his statements
How can they keep the inland water moving so it doesn’t become stagnant and green?
tides and gates
Very impressive!
Interesting project…
no tree so far in their backyards
Sea will give nutrition to the ground... Than puting sand into the sea
Do they have any idea what the latest `dire ` sea level rise scenarios are now we got better measurements of what's happening underneath thwaites glacier and Greenland...?
Is he exaggerating or do Americans really think 25 years of building is short or at least normal?
A small country with law GDP are booming developing mega cities and infrastructure on desert and created jobs .what about the big countries with high income and have suitable lands, were are the money taken to.(someones offshore accounts) " I love my leaders"..........
Why build in sea when u can do it on shore.
Absolutely true. So much money wasted.
This should have been done in Dubai
This is more intelligent designed than the palm tree island, or the world artificial archipelago, wile those projects are exposed to marine erosion, this project is protected because is created inland !
Going to be some epic ghost towns in the future.

they must invest technology and science in the minds of their citizens .

What happens when ocean levels rise?
Makes me so angry that they are wasting all this time and money into something that will be wrecked in a few decades once they rise. So stupid

@@crypto2162 no one's moving to china's ghost cities man they were built because china is corrupt lol
Um this city is built on the principle fact that it is environmentally sustainable
i would like to see that with my own eyes
To bad they did not invest in basic sewer system before building multibillion dollar developments.
It’s the Arabic gulf because both banks of Arab sea is an Arabic land .
will it sink? like in dubai
All this is paid for with oil ,what happens in 50 years when there's no oil?
The income from the oil gets investted in new forms of production.

Watch the vid. Not a vanity project. Filling an actual need, moving workers closer to their jobs.
This looks like a city destined to fail
They already have full occupancy, from the oil industry workforce.
It's called the Arabian Gulf! Capiche!
How are the workers treated? Similar to Qatar no doubt. And why spend all this money and build totally generic and forgettable architecture?
Qatar is a hell believe me other gulf countries don’t treat workers like qatar do, in uae also conditions are bad but a lot better than qatar
