Here you have it...the worst collection of expensive, tasteless and in some cases hideously kitsch, fake architecture.  Just goes to prove that you cannot buy taste!  Including pastiche "Islamic" icons plastered onto mirror glass (the platform heels of buildings) tower blocks, the Disney-world fantasy of Jumeirah beach (you cannot see the raw sewage in the photo) and, in the misty distance, the Burj Dubai, admittedly tall and technically impressive, but totally pointless unless you are excessively rich and can't think of anything else to impress your equally spoilt and unimaginative peers.
