\u201cAl Wasl Plaza will provide a first of its kind public amenity that will be an inspiration to people around the world.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a space that at once reflects the heritage of our country and its vision of a future where nature and technological innovation are integrated in a sustainable way.”<\/p>\n

The development won’t go to waste once Expo 2020 is over\u00a0<\/h3>\n

The buildings surrounding the area will be converted to hotels and for commercial use, and become a focal point for developments.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Al Wasl Plaza development will also be used as an events space for future endeavours – including larger events such as National\u00a0Day celebrations for up to 10,000 people.\u00a0<\/p>\n
