About

No first trip to Dubai is complete without rising 555 metres above the city. The high-speed lifts whisk you to open-air and glass-walled observation decks where the desert, the Gulf and the entire skyline unfold beneath you. Book a sunset slot to watch the city switch from gold to glitter.

Things to do

  • Catch sunset from the level 125 outdoor terrace
  • Try the interactive telescopes that show the view by day and night
  • Upgrade to SKY on level 148 for refreshments and fewer crowds
  • Time your descent to watch the Dubai Fountain show from above
