The Pearl Island
The Pearl Island (Arabic: جزيرة اللؤلؤة, romanized: jazīrat al-lu'lu'a) in Doha, Qatar, is an artificial island with an area of nearly 4 square kilometres (1.5 sq mi). It was the first land in Qatar to be available for freehold ownership by foreign nationals. The Pearl created 32 kilometres (20 mi) of new coastline, and by 2024 it had around 52,000 residents. In 2004, when the project was first revealed, the initial cost of constructing the island stood at $2.5 billion. This figure was later revised to approximately $15 billion upon completion.
