The View at the Palm or simply The View Dubai is one of the best observation decks in Dubai, offering stunning panoramic views and located on the large man-made island of Palm Jumeirah.
The View at the Palm observation deck is public and is located on the roof (height 240 meters) of the tallest skyscraper of Palm Jumeirah - Palm Tower standing on the so-called shaft Palm Islands Jumeirah.
Architecturally, the skyscraper building itself vaguely resembles the shape of a palm tree.
You can get to the lobby of the observation deck, located on the 52nd floor, in just 45 seconds on a high-speed elevator with a digital sea view.
In the lobby there are ticket offices where you can buy tickets to the observation deck, a small cafeteria with a seating area, a souvenir shop, a cloakroom and toilet rooms.
The ascent to the observation deck "View of the Palm" begins with a passage through an interactive underwater tunnel.
Then, in two rooms, with the help of an interactive floor and screen, guests will learn the history of the construction of the Palm Jumeirah (the tour is conducted in English). Afterwards, guests visit another hall with an exhibition area, where the View Exhibition is located, the exhibits of which also tell about the history of the island.
A visit to all zones is included in the cost of entrance tickets to the observation deck and does not last long.
After that, the guests are lifted on the elevator to the main goal of the visit - the observation deck "View of the Palm".
The observation deck is located on the 52nd level of the Palm Tower, at an altitude of 240 meters (787.40 feet).
The observation deck is round, which gives a 360-degree panorama. The platform is open from above, while you can admire the views through slanted glass panels.
Also, the observation deck is a great place for photo shoots.
The view from the observation deck is amazing.
