One of the many delights included in the Burj Khalifa tour is a multimedia presentation that not only portrays exotic chronicles of Dubai’s history, but also depicts the arduous journey that led to the successful completion of this distinctive edifice.
Dubai Mall’s most mesmerizing sight is this gargantuan aquarium where 33,000 beasties / marine life flit and dart amid artificial coral and behind the ‘world’s largest acrylic viewing panel’ (as recorded in the Guinness World Records). Sharks and stingrays are top attractions, with other crowd-pleasers which include a sumo-sized giant grouper and massive schools of pelagic fish.
Tour details:
Only here can you experience a ride in the world’s third fastest elevator that whips you through 124 levels above the ground transporting you to the paramount of ecstasy. The Observation Deck aptly named “At the Top” will feast your eyes with a 360-degree panoramic view of the city, the golden desert and the Persian Gulf.
Designed to world-class standards, the aquarium allows you to experience the exotic wonders of aquatic life first-hand through breathtaking views and a choice of leisure and dining activities. Located strategically in the center of the mall, the 50m long aquarium is flanked by two glass tunnels at varying levels offering windows into the incredible diversity of marine life. Travelling through these, you will be treated to an exceptional underwater experience as you see sharks, stingrays and other species of fish in their natural habitat.
The very worthwhile Underwater Zoo journeys through three eco-zones: rainforest, rocky shore and Living Ocean, and a total of 38 aquatic displays. There are lots of rare and interesting denizens here, including air-breathing African lungfish, cheeky archerfish that catch insects by shooting water, spooky giant spider crabs and otherworldly sea dragons.
