Dubai Frame

A 150-metre golden picture frame in Zabeel Park: step into the glass-floored sky deck and old Dubai spreads out on one side, the new skyline on the other — the city's whole story in a single glance.

Mornings mean softer light and shorter queues. We pair the Frame with old Dubai — Al Fahidi's lanes, an abra across the Creek and the spice souk — for a half day that shows you both Dubais.

Plan your visit

Tips from our team

• Use Gate 4 for the ticket office and the attraction entrance.
• The glass-floor bridge at the top is 150 metres up; take it slowly if heights bother you.
• Combine it with Old Dubai: the creek, the souks and Al Fahidi are 10–15 minutes away.

Getting there with Arabian Ring

We drop you at Gate 4 and pick you up as soon as you are done. The Dubai Frame works best on a Dubai icons route: Dubai Frame in the afternoon, Old Dubai at sunset, then Burj Khalifa or the Dubai Fountain in the evening.
