[2025 Dubai Shopping Mall] Travel Guide for The Dubai Mall (Updated Mar)

#nightlife I recently spent an evening exploring Downtown Dubai, and it was absolutely magical! 🌃 The skyline illuminated at night is a sight to behold, especially with the Burj Khalifa towering above. I started my night at the Dubai Fountain, where the light and water show was mesmerizing—completely free to watch! Afterward, I strolled around the Dubai Mall, which was beautifully lit and bustling with energy. I couldn't resist stopping for a delicious gelato at one of the many cafés. 🍦 The atmosphere was lively, with street performers adding to the charm. To cap off the evening, I found a rooftop bar nearby with incredible views of the city. The drinks were a bit pricey, around 60 AED, but the ambiance and views made it worth it. If you’re in Dubai, experiencing Downtown at night is an absolute must! #trip #DowntownDubai #BurjKhalifa #DubaiFountain #NightLife #CityViews

#coupletravel I just spent an incredible week in Dubai, and it felt like a dream come true! 🌟 The city is a blend of futuristic skyscrapers, luxury, and rich culture. I started off with a visit to the iconic Burj Khalifa—tickets were around 150 AED, but the view from the 148th floor was out of this world! You could see the entire city stretching out below, including the desert and coastline. I also spent a lot of time at Dubai Marina and JBR Beach, where the vibe is super relaxed. One evening, I took a Dhow Cruise around the Marina for 200 AED, and it was magical watching the city light up at night. The Dubai Mall is a must, not just for shopping, but for the Dubai Aquarium and the mesmerizing fountain show outside—both free to admire if you don’t want to spend too much! One of the highlights was a desert safari. For about 300 AED, I went dune bashing, rode a camel, and enjoyed a BBQ under the stars. The mix of adrenaline and peace out in the desert was unforgettable. Dubai is a city where you can do it all! #trip #DubaiAdventure #BurjKhalifa #DesertSafari #LuxuryCity #TravelDreams

Dubai's weather is extremely hot, but it's quite different from Hong Kong's summer heat. The arid climate makes the sun feel like it's scorching your body. Spending just 30 minutes outside at noon can leave you dizzy, yet you won't break a sweat. To escape Dubai's sun, tourists typically spend their mornings and afternoons indoors, at the beach, or by the hotel pool. The Dubai Mall, the world's largest shopping mall, is a great option for leisure. We started our visit in the morning and couldn't cover the entire mall even by sunset—it's truly massive. If you enjoy large shopping malls in Shenzhen, this Dubai mall will definitely amaze you! The Dubai Mall is the world's largest shopping center. It houses the world's largest aquarium, the world's largest musical fountain, and the tallest building in the world. This place truly combines four world records in one. The Dubai Mall features over 1,200 stores, offering everything from luxury brands to local handicrafts. Whether you're a shopping enthusiast or just want to take in the sights, this place is worth a visit. The Dubai Aquarium inside the mall is one of the largest indoor aquariums in the world. You can see over 33,000 different marine creatures, including sharks, turtles, and colorful corals. Outside the Dubai Mall, the Burj Khalifa Lake hosts the world's largest musical fountain. Every night, there's a spectacular music and light show that attracts thousands of visitors.

As many sources say it’s actually not the largest mall in the world but it likes to advertise itself as one. Certainly it’s large! and it has everything modern consumer can dream off. Massive retail space with all brands one can think of from high street to luxury, massive selection of restaurants from posh to casual, entertainment from arcades, cinemas to an Aquarium (yes they say the biggest in the world) and multiple spots with instagramable opportunities. It’s an obligatory visit for tourist to tick a box, if you like shopping you will enjoy it. look out for retail festivals (yes they have those in Dubai conveniently dotted around the year) for massive discounts. Did I mentioned biggest fountains in the world? yes you can watch them from multiple restaurants with the view but make your booking early, it’s a popular attraction. it gets busy so during weekend it’s more convenient to take a taxi or metro rather then spend ages looking for parking. Also mind, recently it changed its name with lots of celebrations from The Dubai Mall to Dubai Mall, so don’t get confused 🙌🏼 #retailtherapy #experiences

Great selection of indoor games, vr stations and arcade stations and even a short roller coaster. Kids can spend good couple oh hours getting addicted to collecting coupons for exchange of awards. dune Bashing VR is quite entertaining. you can find it on lever 4 of Dubai mall, look out for flash sales as you can double up on your money. Relatively not too busy considering location. #arcade

Shake Shack Dubai Mall is a large, large and unclear southeast and northwest, and you need to open a navigation search to find a restaurant. Search for Shake Shack, a bit familiar, is it our domestic red burger shop? I heard that I want to eat a hamburger and wait for an hour or something. It is not necessary. See this store in Dubai, it is very kind, the point is, don't line up! If you have a price, don't expect to be close to the people. It is also the first time that 100 hamburgers per person are eaten. Try it. Signature beef burger is a must, expensive and expensive, beef patties are really delicious, it is rare for my family to eat hamburgers. Here you should recommend cheese fries, the thick cheese is delicious to fly, but it will feel a bit greasy when you eat too much. It is ok for three people to eat one.

In the fall that has not yet passed, I will return my baggage for 9 hours in 1 hour. The world is so good, you can go to the season you want to go at any time. Hello

This time, I would like to introduce a restaurant called Doors on the 4th floor of Dubai Mall. The Dubai Mall fountain show is held once every 30 minutes, and since a lot of people come to watch it every time, it is quite difficult to find a good spot to see it, but Dubai Mall has many restaurants where you can watch the show. Dubai Mall itself is open until late at night, and this restaurant is also open until 1am! The staff at this restaurant are really kind and will serve you drinks and take photos to give to you as gifts. You can also watch the show from the 4th floor without worrying about the crowds, so if you come to Dubai, why not visit it once? 📍Doors: The Dubai Mall Fashion Avenue Expansion Level 4 - Dubai - United Arab Emirates——————————————————————————————— #overseas travel trip #dubai #dubai mall #dubai sightseeing
