Burj Park is a sprawling public green space that’s open round-the-clock and free to access, located in the heart of Dubai’s busiest urban area. Accessed via bridges from the mainland, the park is set on an island next to the Dubai Fountain Lake. It’s where Dubai locals walk their dogs, go for a jog, cycle or enjoy a picnic, and it often gets busy in the evenings. What makes the park extra special is its unparalleled views of the world’s tallest building and the nightly Dubai Fountain shows. It also has a sculpture park and a busy calendar of pop-up events, including Christmas fairs, fashion shows and open-air markets. Bike hire and parking are available at the entrance.
