Downtown Dubai is located in the heart of the city centre along Sheikh Zayed Road. It is bordered by Al Wasl to the northwest and Business Bay to the south. The area was created by the UAE's largest developer, Emaar Properties, which is responsible for such famous projects as the Burj Khalifa and Dubai Mall.

The history of Downtown Dubai began in the early 2000s when Emaar Properties announced plans to create a new city centre. Until then, its area was mostly desert. The project was ambitious and envisaged the construction of not only residential but also commercial facilities, cultural attractions and infrastructure amenities. Implementation took several years, and the key facilities of Burj Khalifa and Dubai Mall have become iconic for the entire emirate and have given Downtown Dubai an international reputation.
