What’s Inside the Dubai Frame?

The experience begins even before you ascend to the sky bridge. The journey is thoughtfully designed to take you through the past, present, and future of the city in under two hours.

1. Old Dubai Gallery (Ground Floor)

Explore how Dubai evolved from a fishing village and pearl-diving hub to a global metropolis. The exhibit uses visuals, sound, and immersive effects to bring the old souks, dhow boats, and desert communities to life.

2. Sky Bridge (Top of the Frame)

A panoramic glass bridge connects the towers — offering views of old Dubai to the north (Deira, Bur Dubai, and Al Fahidi), and new Dubai to the south (Downtown, Burj Khalifa, Sheikh Zayed Road).

• Glass Floor Experience:
  A 25-meter-long glass panel in the center lets you walk above the city with an unobstructed view 150 meters down.

• Interactive Screens:
  Touch panels help identify landmarks, buildings, and city zones.

3. Future Dubai Gallery (Exit Tunnel)

End your journey with a 360-degree projection showcasing Dubai’s futuristic ambitions. Think drone taxis, Mars missions, vertical farming, and AI-powered living.
