However, if you’re also planning to visit Dubai anytime soon with your friends or family, here we’ve mentioned 5 places that you shouldn’t miss. Take a look:

1. Burj Khalifa: A trip to Dubai is incomplete if you don’t visit the iconic Burj Khalifa, which is the tallest building in the world with a height of 829.8 m. This place is perfect for viewing the stunning Dubai skyline and sunsets. The Burj Khalifa is one of Dubai’s most popular tourist attractions, drawing millions of tourists every year. Reaching ‘At The Top’ of Burj Khalifa will provide a panoramic view of the city that will imprint on your memory forever.
2. Dubai Mall: For the shopping enthusiasts, Dubai Mall is the world’s largest mall and his home to almost all big brands. Some of the major attractions of this mall are The Dubai Aquarium, An Ice Rink, an indoor theme park and a fountain show, which will interest not just kids but the parents as well. The Dubai Mall is more than a shopping destination; it’s a journey of discovery and an experience unlike any other.
3. Museum of the Future: Next up on the list is the famous Museum of the Future, which is located on Sheikh Zayeda Road. It is a new-age museum dedicated to the exploration of a possible future, showcasing how the world will be in 2071. The museum is built in a torus-shaped building with no columns and displays futuristic technology ideas. The building’s windows are shaped like Arabic poetry about the future penned by Dubai’s ruler, Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum. This place should have to be on your Dubai itinerary.
4. Palm Jumeirah: The Palm Jumeirah in Dubai is an architectural marvel in the middle of the Arabian Sea, designed like a palm leaf and dedicated to man’s ambition and invention. This could be the best place for people who love to enjoy water sports, nightlife, and outdoor activities. It is also known for its opulent real estate, including villas and apartments with views of the Arabian Gulf and Dubai skyline.
5. Dubai Frame: Lastly, the Dubai Frame should also have to be on your list. Shining against the Emirati sky, it’s a huge window-like structure that connects the city’s dazzling history and future. It demonstrates the improvement that has brought this desert oasis to the international spot. Moreover, the sky deck allows you to walk on a clear 50m-long opaque glass bridge for panoramic views of the city.
