About the district
City Walk is a modern pedestrian district in the 'city within a city' style, between Downtown and the coast. It consists of well-kept streets with boutiques, restaurants, street art and European-style facades, designed for strolling and shopping.
Nearby is the city's largest indoor venue, the Coca-Cola Arena, where concerts and shows are held. City Walk combines housing, retail and entertainment and is popular with those who value a pedestrian-friendly environment in the city centre.
City Walk is an attempt to bring 'European' street life together under the Dubai sky: neat boulevards, shop windows, cafés with verandas and murals on the walls. In the evenings people come here to stroll and dine, while the neighbouring Coca-Cola Arena regularly draws thousands to its concerts.
