We highly recommend visiting the Burj Khalifa about an hour before sunset to see daytime views, sunset views, and nighttime views. From the observation deck, we could see the enormous Dubai Mall and Dubai Fountain. We had a perfect view of the Dubai Fountain Show from the observation deck. After our visit to the Burj Khalifa, we went to the Dubai Fountain Boardwalk to get up close views of the fountain show. The beautifully choreographed show was a perfect ending to a wonderful day in Dubai.
