Downtown Dubai Location Information
Downtown Dubai, additionally referred to just as Downtown, is presumably the most prestigious location in Dubai, on account of its centerpiece – the Burj Khalifa – the tallest tower on the planet.
The area's configuration takes into account a person "on foot" way of life, an irregularity in Dubai.
Carefully arranged, palm trees – which are lit up during the evening – line the more extensive boulevards. On account of a blend of private settlement, workplaces, lodgings and retail offices, including the enormous Dubai Mall and the conventional Souk al Bahar, inhabitants feel like they are living in a smaller than expected city, named the 'focal point of now', which has everything on their doorstep
Downtown is very much joined, sandwiched between Dubai's primary conduit, Sheik Zayed Road (SZR) and Al Khail Road. It requires about the same investment to head into 'old and new' Dubai territories. The ocean is likewise just 10-15 minutes away. A metro station and transports join SZR to Dubai Mall.
