The Future Museum in Dubai!
A secret on how to buy a ticket cheaper than at the museum’s cash desk, information at the end!
When I first heard about the Future Museum in Dubai, I immediately asked myself: is it worth visiting? All these enthusiastic reviews, incredible photographs of a futuristic building – is it really that impressive? I decided to check it out for myself and I did not regret it!
First impressions: as if in a different time
As soon as I approached the building, I was struck by its unusual shape. It looks like a huge silver oval with Arabic script carved into it. Later I learned that these are inspiring quotes from Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum about the future and progress. The building symbolizes the connection between the past and the future, and the emptiness in its center represents the unknown that still needs to be filled.
To be honest, I stood in front of the entrance and just looked at this miracle of engineering thought before going inside.
What’s inside? The world of the future is already here
As soon as I got inside, I immediately felt that this was not just a museum, but rather a portal to another world. The entire interior is designed in a minimalist, but ultramodern style. There are no usual museum stands and signs – everything is interactive, everything lives and reacts to you.
The first zone I entered was space technology. Imagine, you enter a darkened space, and in front of you are panoramic screens showing how humanity colonizes Mars. And then there’s a mission to a space station where you can feel like a real astronaut.
Next, I went to the environmental zone – and this is where I was really hooked. I saw how technology can save our planet: from growing plants in laboratory conditions to creating sustainable cities. At that moment, I caught myself thinking that we are already on the verge of huge changes, it’s just that not everyone realizes it.
There was also a zone dedicated to healthcare. Here, I was able to test future technologies – for example, AI diagnostics that analyze your health condition in a couple of minutes. I wondered: maybe soon visits to doctors will become optional?
Practical information: what you need to know
If you decide to go to the Future Museum, here are some tips:
• Opening hours: 9:00 am to 7:00 pm (it’s better to come in the morning when there are fewer people).
• Tickets: 149 dirhams (about $40), children under 4 years old are free. I advise you to buy tickets in advance online.
• How to get there: the easiest way is by metro – Emirates Towers station, 5 minutes walk from there.
Is it worth going? Definitely yes! A secret on how to buy a ticket cheaper than at the museum’s cash desk, information at the end!
I have been to dozens of museums around the world, but the Future Museum is something completely special. It’s not just an exhibition, but a real journey through time where you feel what tomorrow might be like.
If you love technology, futurism, and innovation, then this is the place for you. Even if you are skeptical about everything “hyped,” believe me – this museum will definitely surprise you.
I left it with the feeling that I had looked a couple of decades into the future. Perhaps this is where you can feel what our world will be like very soon.
