Meet the neighbours<br />
Dan Mounir has lived in Meydan for<br />
one year. “The central location is ideal<br />
for getting to Downtown and The<br />
Dubai Mall, while the community itself<br />
is very green with lots nice places to<br />
walk around. It’s a great community for<br />
sport lovers – there’s the cycle track, polo club for<br />
horse riding and tennis courts to keep you fit.”<br />
