Is Dubai Frame Worth Visiting?

Dubai Frame is worth visiting if you want to see Dubai from above and learn more about how the city has changed over the past century.

  • The main attraction is the Sky Deck, where you can look in opposite directions towards Old Dubai and the modern districts.
  • The glass-floored walkway adds something different to the visit, if you're comfortable with heights.
  • The exhibitions at ground level provide some background on Dubai's development, while the Future Gallery offers a look at possible plans for the city's future.
  • The experience is relatively short compared with larger attractions such as Burj Khalifa, so visiting the Dubai Frame can fit easily into a day of sightseeing.
  • If you have limited time in Dubai, Dubai Frame is worth considering alongside other attractions. However, if your main priority is reaching the highest possible observation deck, you may prefer Burj Khalifa instead.

‍

What You Can See At The Dubai Frame

There are different sections and experiences to enjoy at the Dubai Frame, including:

  • The Old Dubai Gallery: Start your visit with an exhibition about Dubai's early history. Multimedia displays, projections and sensory effects show how the city developed from a small trading and fishing settlement into an important regional centre. The displays introduce aspects of traditional Emirati life and the communities that helped shape Dubai before its rapid expansion.
  • The Sky Deck: The lift takes you to the viewing bridge at the top of Dubai Frame, around 150 metres above the ground. From here, you can look north towards the older districts, including Deira and Bur Dubai, and south towards the modern skyline. On a clear day, you can pick out buildings and neighbourhoods across the city. The viewing area also has displays to help you identify nearby landmarks.
  • The Glass-Floored Walkway: A section of the Sky Deck has a transparent floor, allowing you to look directly down towards the ground below. Walking across it is one of the most memorable parts of the visit, although it may not appeal to everyone who is uncomfortable with heights. You can still enjoy the views from the surrounding viewing area without stepping onto the glass.
  • The Future Dubai Gallery: The final part of the experience looks ahead to what Dubai might become. Digital projections and interactive displays explore ideas for future buildings, technology and urban development. The galleries and viewing deck give the visit a clear theme: Dubai's past, its present-day skyline and its ambitions for the future.

About Dubai Frame

The Dubai Frame stands proudly at 150 metres tall. From the Sky Deck level is offers views of the city, with Old Dubai to the North and New Dubai to the South.

Starting on the ground floor, you take a journey through time with Dubai’s past and its humble beginnings through to its present day with its skyscraper buildings and modern take on a city.

You can access the top floor using the elevator which whisks you up 48 floors in just 75 seconds where you will find the sky bridge that connects the two towers and completes the frame. On this deck you can enjoy views as well as the glass walkway that brings another dimension to the frame, where you can look straight down to appreciate its height.

With 15,000 square metres of gold-coloured stainless steel used to create it as well as around 3,000 square metres of laminated glass, the structure was created by the same architect that designed The Renaissance Tower as well as Dubai’s famous Porshe Design Tower, Fernando Doris.

The Dubai Frame - the past, the present and the future.
