Mohammed Bin Rashid City (MBR City) in Dubai is one of the most ambitious projects in the city's history, named after its ruler, Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum. This expansive development, covering approximately 10,800 hectares, includes over 26,000 buildings from high-rise residential towers to premium villas and townhouses. The district is designed with the latest trends in urban planning and architecture. It features business centers, educational, commercial, and industrial facilities, and numerous cultural attractions. Both public and private developers develop the area: Meraas and Emaar are known for large-scale projects with comprehensive infrastructure, while Sobha and Azizi Developments specialize in both luxury and affordable housing of various types — from villas to apartments. The residential complexes offer a high level of comfort combined with modern technologies and sustainable practices.
The extensive area includes hospitals, schools, nurseries, hotels, and sports centers. The community features the 7 km Crystal Lagoon with artificial beaches, promenades, and bike tracks. The project boasts extensive green spaces, with over 60% of the area dedicated to parks, gardens, and golf courses. Additionally, there are plans for a 30,000-seat Grand Plaza, a cultural and historical center, a musical fountain, an art gallery, and 8 libraries. The community plans to build the world’s largest shopping complex, Mall of the World, envisioned as a separate city with various shops, restaurants, residential units, and hotels. The area is strategically located between major highways: Al Khail Road, Umm Suqeim Road, Sheikh Zayed Road, and Dubai Al Ain Road. The area symbolizes culture, innovation, and a unique lifestyle. Flexible off-plan property payment plans offer investors up to 80% bank financing for projects under construction. The average return on investment in real estate is at least 8% annually.
