Dubai frame
The Dubai Frame Observation Deck or the Dubai Golden Frame is another Dubai record and a popular tourist attraction.
The 150 m high frame is located in Zabeel Park.
On the first floor, at the bottom of the Dubai Frame, there is a gallery where you will immerse yourself in the history of Dubai, as well as take part in an interactive journey into the future of Dubai. This is not the usual boring tour with dates and photos, but a whole immersive performance where you become part of the story. The tour involves light and sound projections and even smells. After that, you can take the elevator to the observation deck. The upper crossbar of the Dubai Frame is made of glass. It offers breathtaking views of the old and new areas of the city, the Dubai Creek, and the desert.
Dubai Frame or Burj Khalifa - what to choose
Travelers often choose between visiting the Dubai Frame and the Burj Khalifa. Burj Khalifa is higher and located in the city center. The advantage of the Dubai Frame is the lower price, an unusual tour before and after visiting the observation deck, and the actual view of Burj Khalifa.

Useful tips before visiting Dubai Frame
Make sure the weather is clear before climbing up to the observation deck, otherwise you won't see anything.
The best time to visit is half an hour before sunset. Then you will see how beautifully the sun is melting over the city and how its last rays are reflected in thousands of windows.
Please note that drinks and food are not allowed to be taken with you, and bulky items such as baby strollers and bags will need to be left in the free luggage room.
Opening hours and prices
The observation deck is open every day from 9.00 to 21.00. The schedule may change during Ramadan.
The entrance ticket costs 50 AED ($20) for adults and 20 AED (approximately $5) for children. Children under 3 years old enter free of charge.
Tickets can be purchased at the box office or bought online.
How to get to Dubai Frame
You can walk to Ramka through Zabil Park, but you will have to pay $5 to enter the park. If a walk in the park does not interest you, you can bypass it and go straight to the Frame. If you buy tickets in advance online, the entrance to the park will be free for you and the path to the attraction will be half as long.
