The development is scheduled to open in the final quarter of 2020 and promises to offer visitors an ‘unparalleled modern lifestyle experience’.
Al Qana’s 2.4 kilometre stretch will include a range of attractions including the Middle East’s largest aquarium, a VR park, outdoor skatepark and cinema, as well as a range of dining outlets.
Al Qana also promises to include landscaped community spaces that are aimed at encouraging social interaction within its seven key districts. Many of the features will be focused towards promoting a healthy, well-balanced lifestyle to improve the happiness of Abu Dhabi’s residents and tourists.
