Profile: Downtown Dubai

Profile: Downtown Dubai

In Downtown Dubai, you can shop to your heart’s content at the Dubai Mall, one of the world’s largest and most visited, with over 1,200 stores—incredibly, it also contains an aquarium and a theme park. Outside, the famous Dubai Fountain amazes onlookers, with the movement of its waters choreographed to light and music shows.

You can’t miss the Burj Khalifa—at 160 stories, this skyscraper dominates Dubai’s futuristic skyline. Ride the elevator to one of its observation decks, where you’ll have a stunning 360-degree view of the city, as well as of the surrounding ocean and desert.
