Mandalay Canal at Las Colinas

An upscale, developed area of Irving, Texas, Las Colinas is centrally located between Dallas and Fort Worth near the DFW Airport. A viable place in the Metroplex for corporate and business relocation, Las Colinas was developed as a planned community with many corporate offices, luxury hotels, landmark office towers, luxury townhomes, distinguished single-family homes, private country clubs, gated enclaves and urban lofts. The complex also features the above-ground Las Colinas APT System and a River Walk–style canal that offers gondola cruises and water sports. A charming part of Las Colinas is the Mandalay Canal, which boasts an old-world style that gives the surrounding office buildings, restaurants and shops a unique environment from the modern counterparts on the street above. Known as the best kept secret of Irving, the manmade Mandalay Canal is reminiscent of Italy with cobblestone, tree-lined streets and several European emporium shops that many tourists don’t expect to find in the heart of Texas. Mandalay Canal was formed to connect to the business center to the manmade lake around which many of the area’s homes and businesses are situated.
