ABOUT SKY VIEWS DUBAI
Sky Views Observatory, a futuristically built podium, connects the Address Sky View Towers, the 50-storey twin buildings close to Downtown Dubai across from Burj Khalifa.
Sky Views Dubai is the perfect example of phenomenal engineering, accomplished by a highly-trained team of over 300 engineers and construction and design specialists. It was designed by many of the same architects who constructed the world-famous Burj Khalifa.
Many people visit Sky Views Dubai at sunset for uniquely beautiful views of the cityscape as the sun goes down.
