The area
Address
Neighbourhood: Downtown Dubai
You can’t fail to miss Dubai’s iconic Burj Khalifa, the world’s tallest building. It towers over the city and resides in the prestigious Downtown development. Once an old army base, Downtown is now the jewel in Dubai’s crown, a beautiful residential and leisure area housing not only the world’s tallest building, but the world’s largest fountains and mall. Wide marble sidewalks are perfect for strolling, with restaurants, art galleries and children’s play areas. Specially commissioned sculptures line the roads and Downtown is often used as a canvas for modern art displays and community events such as Classic Car Shows and National Day parades. In the cooler months, cross one of the many bridges to the Burj Khalifa park and enjoy a picnic alongside residents and visitors, or enjoy a lunch or dinner watch the dancing fountains. Because of its mixed use, Downtown is a fantastic place to mix with Dubai residents and locals and watch real life unfold in a cosmopolitan environment.

Massive! You need to visit to get the idea, words and pictures won’t do justice. Very clean, very organized. Easy to find.

Love the mall and always visit the fountain to catch the show when I’m in Dubai. The show lasts All of 5 minutes and is quite an interesting display of light and sound.
The mall has many restaurants to choose from and an amazing variety of stores - from
High- end to midrange. It’s massive so be prepared to walk. Parking can also be a challenge on weekends and valet is available at a cost (yes it’s quite steep), so I would recommend an Uber.
Something else I love about the mall is the aquarium

Huge mall with all possible brands and two big food courts. One attraction are the waterfalls which you can visit for free. Many good coffee shops in between to have a rest as well as an ice ring. The AC is turned very cold, so better take a pullover or jacket with you.

Beware of a Taxi scam being run by attendants. They put you in a taxi that’s unofficial, tell you it’s no different but costs you twice the amount it should. He also wanted cash. When I said I’d pay be card. He wanted to charge more which he says he can do as it’s a private taxi. First bad experience of shag has been a great trip. ONLY USD OFFICIAL TAXIS

Though it is very big and wide spread, this beautiful and busy shopping complex is so convenient and customer friendly. It has thousands of shops for your to choose according to your affordability. Although there are a lot of visitors and shoppers and the situation is havoc and busy, the toilets are kept clean all the time. Even the walkway and courtyard are kept clean too.

Hello I would like to know if I took Mauritian currencies MUR to come at dubai Airport they will allow me to change it into dirham after the check in?or should I change it in my country before I come?

I agree, I would change into Dirham before going if you can, otherwise you can change at the airport but not favorable rates. If you have a debit card, there are many ATM's and they will have the most favorable rate.

Hi there -
Looking to visit the mall and watch the fountains one day this October - can anyone recommend best kid friendly restaurants with view of fountains please?
Also are they best to watch as it’s getting dark so you see lights etc? If so what time is that roughly please?
How often is the fountain show please & how long does it last?
Thanks

We were there in September and the show is much prettier at night than in the day. The sun was setting in September around 6:30. We saw the 7:00 pm show. The show only lasts 2 minutes but is beautiful. They do shows every half hour. Sorry, I can't speak to kid friendly restaurants for the show but the restaurant with the best view is Abd El Wahad (Lebanese food). You might consider scheduling a dhow (boat) ride at night to see the show even better and eating at any if the chain restaurants (KFC, McDonald's etc) in the mall before or after for your kids' sake. Hope this helps.

How much time does it take to cross the Dubai mall
Michael Bittle

10 minutes. 10 hours. Or 10 days. Depends on how much shopping you do and how often you get lost. It is after all the 2nd largest mall in the world.
