Emirates Hills Villa & Wafi Film Evening

I spent the day photographing the landscaped gardens and water  features (inside and outside) of a villa that cost over Dhs. 30 Million to build (and is estimated to be worth Dhs. 75 Million now). 

This water cascade runs from the ceiling of the second floor down into the basement !!!

 This fountain is in the ballroom.

There is a swimming pool in the basement .....

.... plus a large fitness centre, a sauna, steam room and changing rooms.

We then joined a few other members of Internations for the outdoors film night at the Wafi Mall Rooftop Garden this evening to watch "Due Date".
