The soaring glass-enclosed building integrates an expansive indoor forest—featuring the world’s tallest indoor waterfall, tree-top walking trails, and additional interactive attractions—with retail galleries, restaurants, a hotel, and landside airport operations. Fully publicly accessible, Jewel is linked to Terminals 1, 2, and 3, as well as the city’s public transportation grid. To realize this groundbreaking vision, Safdie Architects brought together and led a global collaboration of the best minds in the fields of engineering, landscape architecture, water feature design, interior design, and art.
