About

Often called the most beautiful building on earth, the Museum of the Future is part exhibition, part theatre. Travel to an orbital space station, walk through a living library of species and slow down in a sensory wellness sanctuary β€” all wrapped in Arabic poetry by Emirati artist Mattar bin Lahej.

Things to do

  • Board the OSS Hope space station experience
  • Explore The Vault β€” a DNA library of 2,400 species
  • Photograph the Arabic calligraphy faΓ§ade at night
  • Let kids loose in the Future Heroes zone
