The Experience
Before You Go
Book sunset timing
Reserve a late-afternoon slot to capture daylight, sunset and the illuminated cityscape without rushing.
Carry a portable charger
High-use cameras and phones drain quickly while using interactive exhibits and green-screen photos; bring a power bank.
Mind the dress code
Smart-casual attire is requested in some indoor areas—avoid beachwear and be prepared for heavily air-conditioned spaces.
Use the fountain boardwalk
For prime Fountain show photos, arrive early at the Souk Al Bahar or Burj Park boardwalk to claim a spot.

Conservation Note
High visitor volume in a desert city stresses water and energy systems—use refillable bottles, follow signage, and avoid littering to reduce impact.
The Burj Khalifa opened in 2010 and became an instant symbol of Dubai’s rapid urban expansion and ambition; Downtown Dubai was developed by Emaar to combine retail, residential and leisure at the city’s core.
