More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step into a glass elevator and the city unfolds — a straight line separating the old souks from the glass-and-steel towers of new Dubai. The Dubai Frame perches above Zabeel Park, two 150-meter towers linked by a gleaming bridge; from its transparent floor the metropolis reads like a living map.
