Land of spices, souks, haggling, jostling crowds and perpetual motion, Morocco makes an immediate and alluring impact on the senses. Labyrinthine streets draw you back into the heart of a mysterious and ancient world characterised by imperial cities, palaces, teeming markets, mosques, story tellers, snake charmers, hand-woven carpets and mint tea. Moroccan hospitality is the cornerstone on which a whole culture is built. International City's 'Morocco' features three and four storey residential buildings decorated with vibrant green tiles, natural terracottas, stucco walls and wide arch windows. The simplicity of the architecture conjures up images of life in the desert, with airy spaces and sand coloured walls evoking an old world charm. International City's unique design has attracted strong interest from a variety of leading retail outlets, and the development will feature 5,000 shops, some of which will be located on the ground floor of certain residential blocks. Other facilities include three schools, several entertainment facilities and outdoor theatres.
Restaurants, medical centres, a post office, police station and transportation services; and a huge parking area will also help ensure a high standard of living and utmost convenience for residents. The neighbouring DragonMart Complex comprises eight fully equipped warehouses offering customers the widest range of Chinese goods outside mainland China. Packed with every conceivable retail product for both the trade and consumer markets, it serves as a permanent exhibition and commercial venue for over 3,000 Chinese companies to display and sell their wares. A tourist attraction in its own right, the complex will house showrooms, shopping areas and restaurants. The neighbouring 12 million square foot Dubai Design Centre is aimed to be a world-class central hub for all products designed to improve both internal and external spaces, including everything from furniture and kitchenware to building material and supplies. DDC will also offer attractive residential and commercial opportunities.
