    "Every building in Dubai has a sense of future, never tired of seeing, not outdated, and the museum of the future is also. The overall feeling is that the furnishings inside are not much different from the 2010 Shanghai Expo, but the biggest visual impact is the seed space. If you miss the Expo, it is worth coming to punch in."

The top of the structure is an observation deck and for those who are adventurous, the middle of the area is constructed with transparent glasses for you to observe the structure below your feet. Also, you will be able to see Burj Kalifa in the distance on days with high visibility."
