Burj Khalifa
For a bucket-list experience, take the VIP Tour of Burj Khalifa, the tallest building in the world at 2,716 feet and 160 storeys, that dominates the skyscraper-filled skyline. Entrance for the tours is in the Dubai Mall and the super-fast elevator up is pretty amazing! Explore the world’s highest lounge on the 154th floor and immerse yourself in the clouds with an exclusive tour of the outdoor terrace. Delight in an impeccable selection of the finest teas and coffees or enjoy a house beverage or glass of bubbly complimented by gourmet canapes.
Dubai Frame
The clear glass bridge that connects the parallel towers gives the Dubai Frame its iconic structure, offering panoramic views of Old and New Dubai. It holds the record for the largest frame in the world. The building has a height of 150.24 meters (493 feet) and a width of 95.53 meters (313 feet). The building mainly serves as an observatory, providing views of old Dubai in the north and newer parts in the south.
Museum of The Future
The museum building is an architectural and engineering marvel confidently straddling the past and the future, applying advanced technology to traditional artforms. The building ‘speaks Arabic’: its facade is a canvas for the poetry of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum rendered in the calligraphy of Mattar bin Lahej.
The building’s design and form is futuristic, opening a new path away from the highrise towers that dominate the skylines of Dubai. Its form is symbolic: The torus-shaped sculptural building represents humanity; the green mound it sits atop represents the earth; the void represents the unknown future.
The museum is a gateway to a future world, crafted by visionary designers, artists and filmmakers. The Museum combines elements of exhibition, immersive theater and themed attraction. Each floor is like a film set from a future that you can inhabit, explore and interact with. Atlantis The Royal Panoramic Penthouse View of the Palm Island
The Palm Island
Dubai is famous for its soaring skyline – and that’s not the only feat of engineering to capture the world’s imagination. Built from reclaimed land in a series of artificial archipelagos, Palm Jumeirah is shaped like a palm tree when viewed from above. The unique island is home to some of Dubai's top luxury resorts, including the Atlantis, The Palm and Atlantis, The Royal.
The tree-shaped Palm Jumeirah island is known for glitzy hotels, posh apartment towers, beachfront mansions, and upmarket global restaurants. The Palm Jumeirah Boardwalk is popular for its views of the Dubai coastline and the sail-shaped Burj Al Arab hotel which is also built on its own man-made island. Beach clubs with spas and infinity pools turn into boisterous nightclubs with live DJs in the evening. View of Burj Al Arab and Dubai Marina
