The Dubai Frame is touted to be one of the main tourist attractions of 2018 , alongside the Burj Khalifa and the Burj Al Arab. The Frame was designed by the award winning architect Fernando Donis who has also designed 2 other prominent buildings in Dubai - Dubai’s Porsche Design Towers, and the Dubai Renaissance Tower. Its opulence decor studded with stainless gold cladding is a tribute to Dubai’s reputation as the ‘City of Gold’. Moreover, the honeycomb like golden ring design on the building’s exterior is inspired by the logo of Dubai Expo 2020, which is to be hosted in Dubai.
Dubai Frame Location
Fernando Donis, the architect says that there is a strategic reasoning behind Dubai Frame's location. Zabeel Park, one of Dubai’s oldest parks is set right in the middle of Dubai’s pearl-diving beginnings and glitzy urban cityscape. Since, the purpose of the frame is to give visitors a glimpse to the humble past and ambitious future while standing in its megalopolis present, no location serves the purpose better than Zabeel Park. In a similar vein, being close to the Dubai Creek allows visitors to enjoy aerial views of the abras on the water, a distant glimpse of the Arabian Gulf and other such sharp details.
A definite must see! It is ranked among Tripadvisor's top 10 attractions in Dubai and makes for a great budget substitute to Burj Khalifa. Be it day or night, the Dubai Frame promises stellar views of the city and walking the glass bottom walkway here is the best part - a huge hit among adults and kids alike.
