As one of the UAE’s cultural landmarks, the Dubai Frame comprises twin towers soaring 150 metres high, linked by a 100 metre long glass walkway. Adorned in gold coloured stainless steel, its rectangular design draws inspiration from the golden ratio, symbolising an ideal structural balance. This architectural marvel serves not only as a literal frame capturing panoramic vistas of old and new Dubai, but also a metaphorical bridge connecting the emirate's rich heritage with its present and future. Begin your exploration at the Old Dubai Gallery, a multimedia exhibition tracing Emirati heritage from the city’s humble origins as a fishing village to a modern metropolis. Ascend to the Sky Deck, representing present-day Dubai, to witness 360-degree views spanning old Dubai to the north and new Dubai to the south. Conclude your journey at Future Dubai, an engaging exhibition offering a glimpse into what lies ahead for this dynamic city.

The Dubai Frame is the new addition to the marvelous architecture the city boasts of. Consisting of two vertical towers of 150 meters in height connected by a 100-square-meter bridge, the Dubai Frame is a highlight of the Dubai skyline. A tour of the Dubai Frame is a must if you do not have much time for sightseeing and also if you want to see the entire city at once. The Dubai Frame has a museum and gallery where you can see the growth of Dubai from a simple fishing village to the ultra-modern city it is today with the use of photos and advanced technology. After visiting the museum, you take the elevator to the bridge to get a fascinating glimpse of the city. On one side is the charming old Dubai and on the other side is the modern new Dubai. You can also view the beautiful city while sipping a delicious cups of coffee at the cafe on the bridge.

Not that easy to get to from the Metro. You still need a taxi from metro station to frame entrance, especially in intense heat. Once inside, the exhibits are good and the walk across the grass floor is worth doing. 1 hour to 1 and half hours us enough time for your visit. There was no line up when we get there so cannot comment on how it would be at peak times.
Today i vist dubai frame it's amazing Expenses and thaks for your help dubai frame sttap 🙏
Great place and best view of Dubai city
It was amazing! nice view and the staff is very helpful and cheerful.
The activity itself was very good but we bought 3 tickets but when we reached at entry point after 1 hour of long queue they said that one of the three ticket already used 1 day ago so I had to buy ticket online from their website
Total waste of money, we were in and out of this place within five minutes nothing to see here. Spent more time getting there.
The Frame is a unique experience, and was definitely worth the price and time! Sultan, our driver, was delightful and accommodating.
To book tickets was easy and i received it quickly. Additional comments ; entrance is at gate 4, for regular tickets no time slot.
Very poor experience from start to finish. Our tickets never arrived in time so we had trouble getting into the Frame. Once we finally got in we spent 45 mins in a queue to get to the lift as one of them was broken. After we arrived at the top it was very crowded and to make matters worse we had to spend another 20 mins in an another queue to exit the Frame.
Amazing experience, beautiful views, the new and the old. Very knowledgable and helpful staff, I had questions about the 3 portraits of the rulers, a very kind security guard took the time to explain to me who they were. May I suggest that the information is added under their portraits so people can see it.
