Downtown Burj Dubai

For me, this is the most amazing spot in Dubai... atleast for the next 1 year, maybe.
The amazing Downtown Burj Dubai is situated along sheikh zayed road... and luckily, just 15 minutes (including traffic signal) from our place :)

Obviously, this is where the tallest structure in the world is located... the BURJ DUBAI.
And in no time, lights will cover this building as it is now in its final stage of construction.


While the Burj is still in silent mode... THE ADDRESS has been a new Icon in Dubai in about 6 months already. it is nestled at the heart of the Downtown, just few steps away from...

2 of the best places to go shopping.

the Souk Al Bahar. Souk is an arabic word for market. It has a traditional arabic construction mixed with modern context... a waterside shopping and entertainment destination in the so called Old Town Island - Downtown Burj Dubai.


I dont think a day would be enough to stay in this Downtown... it wont even be enough for the DUBAI MALL... one of the largest mall in the world.
on its soft opening, Dubai Mall has 600 shops already and still counting...


the amusement is not over... having the tallest structure and one of the largest mall in the world, you can also enjoy this breath taking entertainment... the World's largest fountain...
the DUBAI FOUNTAIN.

It is set on the Burj Dubai Lake (30 acre) and the water shoots as high as 500 ft. (= 50 storey building) and 900 ft long, with 5 circles and 2 central archs.
the beam of light shining upward from the fountain can be seen over 20 miles away and will be visible from space making it the brightest spot in the M.E. and quite possibly, in the whole world.

3 world titles... on one spot!

isnt it amazing???

i know my photos are not that good :( 
it was my first time to go there and watched the fountain and i was really really fascinated.
i did a point and shoot so i can watch it live :)
i will post a better one... soon!
