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
...More
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.
