7 Points of Interest & Landmarks in Bur Dubai That You Shouldn't Miss

September 17, 2021 Venice Greaves

Dubai is a destination that mixes modern culture with history, adventure with world-class shopping and entertainment. Catch a show at the Dubai Opera, see downtown from atop the Burj Khalifa and spend an afternoon along Dubai Creek exploring the gold, textile and spice souks. If you’re looking for thrills, you can float above the desert dunes in a hot air balloon, climb aboard a high-speed ride at IMG Worlds of Adventure or skydive over the Palm Jumeirah.

Ismaili Centre, Dubai

Reviewed By akberaly - Toronto, Canada

Tour is excellent, it was done at night time. very good understanding of history. I think if you like to learn about different religions and what is history is behind then you should take tour. By seeing it you will not get deep knowledge. I been to other Ismaili Centres such as one in Toronto and one in Burnaby BC.

This place is an exact replica of old Dubai. Man-made heritage centre, very instagrammable and lots of food places to explore. also you will get the view of dubai creek, a landmark not to be missed. you can take abra (boat) ride from here to actual old dubai town, enriched with old heritage and fusion of different nationalities and cultures. best time to visit Al-Seef is afternoon, stay there till sunset, grab a seat at one of the restaurants with terrace and you will love it.

Dubai Frame

The UAE’s latest cultural landmark, Dubai Frame is an iconic structure that ‘frames’ impressive views of Old and New Dubai, while serving as a metaphorical bridge connecting the emirate’s rich past with its magnificent present. Offering spectacular panoramic views across the city, Dubai Frame celebrates the story of Dubai from its early establishment to its ambitious plans for future development. Launched in January 2018, the project comprises a 150-metre-high, 95-meter-wide structure being built to resemble a huge picture frame, through which landmarks representing modern Dubai such as Emirates Towers and Burj Khalifa can be seen on one side, while from the other side, visitors can view older parts of the city such as Deira, Umm Harare and Karama. Exterior design of Dubai Frame was inspired from the logo of EXPO2020. Dubai Frame is world's largest picture frame by Guinness World Records. The past, present and the future of Dubai in one destination: Dubai Frame.

I would recommend Dubai Frame for everyone looking for a fun day out. I have been to At the top Burf Khalifa multiple times as well. Dubai Frame might to be as high and tall a s the Khalifa but it has an amazing view aswell. The glass floor gives you the exciting, thrilling experience adn the view is amazing as you can see the dubai skyline including the Burj khalifa which looks magnificent during sunset and after all the buildings light up after dark.

A good place to do some shopping for gifts, dry fruit, jewellery the Indian way. There is a lot of bargaining specially at gift shops, ladies bags, dry fruits and other local stuff.

Shiva Temple

Reviewed By NehaAgarwalHaria - Mumbai, India

Very close to the Dubai museum and at a walkable distance from Al Fahidi station, are two temples & a gurudwara. If I am not sure this is the only temple in Dubai. Radha Krishna temple as you enter the lane and the Shiva Temple once you enter the bylanes. The Shiva temple houses the Gurudwara on the top floor. Once you enter the temple street you might tend to forget that you are actually in Dubai. The Shiva temple is a home for many Hindu Gods including Sai Baba, I am a staunch believer of. None of my visits to Dubai are complete without taking the darshan at the temple. Its a place of worship and does not necessarily restrict to someone with Hindu faith. As long as you believe in God and would not hurt the sentiments of the community, please bow your head at this place and may all your wishes come true, as mine did!! Love & Light to all.
