Ferrari World, the first ever theme park dedicated to Ferrari, was lately presented to the international press in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. However, the public opening was postponed owing to the death of 92-year-old Sheik Saqr bin Mohammed Al-Qasimi, the ruler of emirate Ras Al Khaimah.
The 40-acre theme park on Yas Island will now open its doors to the public on November 4, 2010. Designed by Benoy Architects, the stunning roof of Ferrari World is modeled after the side profile of a Ferrari GT and has a total surface area of 200,000 square meters (2,200,000 sq ft) with a perimeter of 2,200 meters.
