You can capture perfect day or night shots of the city on your camera from the observation deck or dine at The Sky Lounge.
The Dubai Fountain
At the base of the Burj Khalifa, there is the Dubai Fountain. The fountain displays powerful water jets that shoot streams as high as 150 meters in the air and sway to musical numbers. You can see the mesmerizing fountains in the evening as the displays start at sundown and play every 30 minutes until 11 pm. In addition, there are several restaurants near the fountain where you can dine with your family.
The Desert
Dubai has a lot to offer you through various activities, but the tranquillity you are looking for is available in the desert. You can go on a desert safari to see the natural views of the Arabian desert. There are also thrilling sports activities like sandboarding and quad biking for adventure lovers.
