Meydan City, generally referred to as Meydan stretches along Ras Al Khor Road and Dubai Al Ain Highway. Sheikh Rashid Bin Maktoum, the ruler of Dubai, created a modern city in Nad Al Sheba, which now includes many luxury ventures. It began as a concept. The title of the community comes from an Arabic term which means a place to meet. It is a place where industry, entertainment, and luxury living converge to build a creative Dubai suburb. Meydan City was largely created with outstanding projects on board in 2007 on the eve of the Dubai World Cup. These initiatives include luxury hotels and resorts, a restaurant with a sky bubble, amusement clubs, a competition square, skyscrapers, and a boathouse.
