This is achieved through wide variety of facilities that will change the concept of traditional family entertainment, including the ‘beach cinema’ which will serve as the most prominent in the series of added attractions available in the project. The Beach cinema will have the largest open air screen in the Middle East and will allow visitors to watch screenings while enjoying the picturesque surroundings and the variety of restaurants and cafes spread throughout the area. A network of hallways and corridors will connect all parts of the project and over 70 brand outlets will be opened in the project including restaurants, cafes and recreational facilities. news@khaleejtimes.com For more news from Khaleej Times, follow us on Facebook at facebook.com/khaleejtimes , and on Twitter at @khaleejtimes Taylor Scott International
