Dubai Creek Harbour | Iconic Mosque

An Ideally Positioned Haven

Dubai Creek Harbour occupies the ideal Dubai location. Only 10

minutes' drive from Downtown Dubai and 15 minutes away from

Dubai International Airport, residents and visitors alike will have

seamless access to two major Dubai roads, Al Khail Road and Ras Al

Khor Road.

At the shore of Dubai Creek is the Ras Al Khor Wildlife

Sanctuary, one of the few protected urban areas in the world, home

to flocks of pink flamingos and 450 other animal species. Residents

and visitors will be able to enjoy life in an ideal location close to water

and nature in remarkable surroundings.

A New Global Icon for the21st Century The design of the Dubai Creek Tower was inspired by the minaret, the

tower-like structure that is traditionally used for the Muslim call to

prayer. The inspiration was also drawn from a lily flower, as evident by

the elongated oval-shaped bud at the top and steel cables evoking

the delicate ribbing of the flower's leaves at the bottom.

The genius behind the future global icon is the renowned

neo-futuristic Spanish architect, Santiago Calatrava.

A Plaza Like No OtherAt the foot of Dubai Creek Tower, a stimulating experiential

destination awaits. The Dubai Creek Tower Plaza is a clock-shaped

haven of landscaping, palm trees and water features sprawling across

0.8 km of land – the width of New York Central Park. Visitors to Dubai

Creek Tower can walk seamlessly from the Tower to the Plaza to the

Dubai Creek District through a cutting-edge underground extension.

The World's Largest Retail DestinationComprising 1.2 M sqm of gross floor retail space, the Dubai Creek

District will double the size of the current biggest retail and

entertainment destination in the world, The Dubai Mall, and its

502,000 sqm of gross leasable area. However, the destination’s

magnitude and the presence of the global must-see attraction,

the Dubai Creek Tower, are only the beginning of the Dubai Creek

District’s universal appeal.

An Unparalleled Level of SophisticationThe architectural masterminds behind the Dubai Creek District have

taken their inspiration from the Arabic mashrabiya and the beams of

light that illuminate traditional souks. The one-of-a-kind technique

filters the sunlight through the perforations in the roof to create a

stimulating effect known as the ‘rain of light’. This will allow each

patron to enjoy an oasis of beauty and serenity that is unprecedented

in world retail.
