The top 5 superlative moments in the United Arab Emirates

Higher, further, more exclusive: the United Arab Emirates is a place where visions know no bounds and where the seemingly impossible becomes reality. In the third part of our journey of discovery through the land of many facets, we are inspired by superlative experiences. At our side: renowned travel expert Michael Kern.

The United Arab Emirates are firmly anchored in the exclusive portfolio of Luxury Dreams as the epitome of extraordinary extravagance. Michael and Marcel Kern have infected us with their enthusiasm for the boundless diversity of the Emirates and shared their best insider tips. Here are their top 5 UAE superlative moments:

1. Edge Walk - At eye level with the Burj Khalifa
A walk on the "Edge Walk" promises pure adrenaline at dizzying heights. Adventure-seekers are rewarded with an incomparable view of the tallest building in the world, the majestic Burj Khalifa. On a platform suspended 220 meters above the ground, visitors walk along the outside of a neighboring skyscraper - without railings, only secured by a rope. "An unforgettable experience for the brave who don't want to miss out on the spectacular view of Dubai's impressive skyline," says Michael Kern.

2nd Dubai Frame - A gateway between two worlds
The imposing Dubai Frame rises like a huge window on the horizon. The impressive installation provides a fascinating view of the city's past and future. On one side, the historic center of Dubai unfolds with its traditional markets and magnificent old buildings, while on the other side the dazzling metropolis with its breathtaking skyscrapers is revealed. Visitors can take a state-of-the-art elevator to the highest point of the golden frame. Standing on the glass bridge here, you can literally feel the rapid development of the region.

3rd Formula Rossa - the roller coaster of superlatives
The world's fastest roller coaster starts moving with a jolt, and in the next moment the "Formula Rossa" shoots through Ferrari World in Abu Dhabi like lightning. The high-speed ride makes the wildest fantasies of speed and weightlessness come true. In fractions of a second, passengers reach speeds of over 240 km/h - an experience that seems to defy the laws of physics. Ferrari World Abu Dhabi is a true Mecca for car lovers and adrenaline junkies. The world's first Ferrari theme park thrills visitors with spectacular roller coasters, attractions about the history of Ferrari and the largest Ferrari store in the world.

4. Capital Gate - The leaning masterpiece
Michael Kern's secret favorite: the Capital Gate in Abu Dhabi - a challenge to gravity. With its striking slant, which makes it the most inclined skyscraper in the world, this architectural masterpiece amazes every observer. With an inclination of 18 degrees, the Capital Gate is around five times steeper than the Leaning Tower of Pisa. The unique structure is the result of ingenious engineering. An advanced system of steel frames and concrete, together with sophisticated building technology, enables the building to retain its sloping shape without running the risk of falling over. The Capital Gate is not only an engineering marvel, but also an iconic Abu Dhabi landmark that sets new standards in architecture.

5th Yas Marina Circuit - experience racing up close
At the Yas Marina Circuit, the most expensive Formula 1 track in the world, the distinctive sound of roaring engines meets glitz and glamor. Here, motorsport is celebrated as a luxurious overall experience. The sports cars race past the elegant yachts swaying in the adjacent harbor. If you want, you can not only watch a spectacular race from an exclusive VIP lounge - the Formula 1 track also hosts motorsport events for professionals and enthusiasts. Visitors can experience a touch of racing fever by doing their own laps, with a selection of different track packages available on site. It can also be a little more relaxed, but by no means ordinary: on certain days you can cycle around the track or jog on the track - we think that's great!
