Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.

Abu Dhabi's rapid development and urbanisation, coupled with the relatively high average income of its population, has transformed the city into a large and advanced metropolis.

Dewas, MP, India

Dewas means abode of the deity or god. E.M.Forster wrote a Travelogue named -The Hill of Devi in 1953. The Hill of Devi is the non-fictional account of his visit and long stay at Dewas.

Dewas has many industrial units providing employment to thousands of industrial workers.

Due to its high location above mean sea level and at one corner of plateau, constant wind flows in the region making it perfectly suited for harvesting wind energy. MP wind farms have chosen an ideal location for planting more than 100 huge monster like wind mills on a hill some 13 km from Dewas. It generates around 15 megawatts of power.

Kelling, Norfolk

As with much of the Norfolk coast, erosion is slowly eating away at the land. Here's a WWII pillbox that would have been on the cliff top originally, and is now on the beach!

Such pillboxes from WWII and even WWI can be found all around coastal Norfolk, although thankfully they were never needed.

A village to the west of Norfolk, it's one of the many places that show that Norfolk isn't all flat.

Edmonton, Canada

Edmonton is a cultural, governmental and educational centre. It hosts a year-round slate of festivals, reflected in the nickname "Canada's Festival City". It is home to North America's largest mall, West Edmonton Mall (the world's largest mall from 1981 until 2004), and Fort Edmonton Park, Canada's largest living history museum.
