    Location and access<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    DIP lies on Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road in south-west Dubai, between Jebel Ali<\/a>, Al Furjan<\/a> and Expo City<\/a>. The metro line to Expo City stops in the area. The Marina<\/a> is around 20 minutes away, Downtown<\/a> about 35 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    What defines DIP<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Dubai Investments Park was laid out from the late 1990s as a mixed area of industry, business and housing. While large parts are dominated by warehouses and businesses, the Green Community<\/b> became one of Dubai’s first villa communities with plenty of greenery: houses on lakes, parks and paths under large trees. Today new apartment and townhouse projects add to the offer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
