Hatta Sustainable Waterfalls Project

One of the highlights of Sheikh Mohammed’s visit was the unveiling of the Hatta Sustainable Waterfalls. This new project includes a beautiful waterfall flowing from the Hatta Dam. It also features the world’s largest mosaic. The mosaic is 2,200 square meters in size, and it was made using 1.2 million pieces of marble. The mosaic honors the UAE’s founding fathers, Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan and Sheikh Rashid bin Saeed Al Maktoum. The Hatta Sustainable Waterfalls project is meant to attract more visitors to Hatta and create more business opportunities for local people.

Supporting Young Innovators

Sheikh Mohammed also met with young Emirati entrepreneurs who are working on exciting projects. One of the projects is called GoGravity, founded by Khalifa and Ahmed Al Bedwawi. This project makes electric bikes that are made for rough, mountain areas. The business started in 2018 and has grown so much that it now sells bikes to other countries. Sheikh Mohammed also visited a local beekeeping project called the Al Bedwawi Honey project, run by Mohammed bin Ham Al Bedwawi. These projects show how young people in Hatta are using their skills to create new businesses and make a difference.

Private Sector Projects in Hatta

Sheikh Mohammed also learned about some ongoing private sector projects in Hatta. One of these is the Hatta Beach project. This project will cover 53,000 square meters and will have a beach, water sports activities, restaurants, and more. The goal is to make Hatta a fun, year-round destination for tourists.

There are other private sector projects as well, like new hotels, resorts, and a new downtown area. There are also 24 ongoing projects that will make life better for people in Hatta, including schools, a wedding hall, and community spaces. One exciting project is the Dubai Mountain Peak cable car. This cable car will take visitors to the highest point in Dubai, Um Al Nesoor Peak. From there, visitors can enjoy views of Hatta Dam, the hydroelectric power station, and the beautiful mountains.
