Downtown Dubai is the heart of Dubai's tourism, entertainment, business, and economic life. Here are the iconic landmarks of the emirate, such as Burj Khalifa, Dubai Mall, Fountain Dubai, Dubai Opera, Souk Al Bahar, and more. Downtown Dubai boasts vibrant nightlife with bars, restaurants, and clubs, amazing shopping from mass-market retailers to luxury brands, venues for family recreation, and a rich cultural atmosphere.
The area has a wide selection of supermarkets, well-developed infrastructure, and an efficient road and transport network. Downtown Dubai is not typically considered a family-oriented area. However, there is a good choice of nurseries, schools and development centres. Emirates Hospital Jumeirah and Al Garhoud Private Hospital Clinic are 15 minutes away by car, and there are multidisciplinary clinics within a 10-minute drive.
