Perched above Zabeel Park, the Dubai Frame frames both historic creekside Dubai and the glass towers of the new city. Ride the elevator to a 150‑meter sky deck, explore a concise museum, and time your visit for softer light and fewer lines.

Step onto the plaza at Zabeel Park and the Dubai skyline rearranges itself: one frame captures low-rise wind towers and the spit of the creek, the other slices through glass-and-steel towers that pulse with LEDs at night. The Dubai Frame is literal in its promise — two 150‑meter vertical towers joined by a 100‑square‑meter sky deck that frames old Dubai on one side and the modern city on the other.
