We fully understand if you don’t want to attend the tennis match because you’re scared of heights. This incredible modern engineering wonder, which rises 1,000 feet above the earth, is connected to the Burj al Arab hotel. Can you guess how many targets have been missing in all of these games? If you’re coming here to watch a game, you don’t want to fall off the perch! The truth is, however, that this court is no longer in use for tennis. It was designed as a publicity stunt for the 2005 Dubai Duty-Free Men’s Open.
