Dubai Frame

The Dubai Frame is a 150-meter picture frame bridging Old and New Dubai, offering a cheeky architectural commentary on the city's split identity. Completed in 2018, it cost $18 million and features a glass-bottomed skywalk that draws 1.2 million visitors annually. The bridge connects two vertical towers, each 93 meters tall, and the view spans from Deira's historic souks to the modern skyscrapers. While Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque's minarets reach for the divine, the Frame grounds itself in playful storytelling.
