The Dubai Frame
The Dubai Frame opened on January 1st, 2018, and at 50Dhs only is definitely worth a visit to get a view of the Dubai skyline. Located at Zabeel Park, the 150m tall landmark is intended to frame the older historic parts of Bur Dubai and Karama against the modern metropolis growing westwards.

Officially opened on January 1st, 2018.
Westward
The view towards the west shows the "new" Dubai.
Eastwards
The other direction, showing the older areas of Bur Dubai and Deira.
People
We went on a Saturday afternoon, and it was definitely quite busy.
Sunset
Offiically you can only stay at the top for 15min, but with some clever sneaking around you can prolong your stay...
Downwards
The view through one of the many glass floors, looking down almost 150m.
Glass Floors
Another view showing the floor and window views.
Framing
Looking through the cladding panels of the skybridge, the shapes of which were inspired by the Expo 2020 logo.
Reflection
The Emirates NBD tower always makes for a nice view at sunset.
Karama Style
A street full of amazing wall art.
Skyline
My favourite in the world.
Spectators
Watching Burj Khalifa in the distance.
Fellow Photographer
And one of the best people all around.
Night Views
Post sunset vibes - the blue hour.
Pink
While nice to look at, the evening illumination inside the skybridge makes for quite a few reflections with the angled windows. Not ideal for photography.
Photographers
There aren't many Dubai spots where you can get these kind of shots.
Looking out
The skyline has literally mushroomed over the last 20 years.
Skybride
A view of the 93m skybridge.
Dubai Frame
The building is 150m high, and its colour changes at night.
