Burj Khalifa is the tallest building in the world and a global icon. This building, which is truly a unique feature of engineering, represents the conceptual heart and soul of the city of Dubai.
At 828 meters high, this magnificent structure is located adjacent to the Dubai store and has been attracting visitors from around the world since its opening in 2010. The unique Burj Khalifa view is available not from one but from two observation decks – the highest point on the 124th and 125th floors as well as the world’s tallest observation deck (555 m) on the 148th floor.
For a truly special experience, guests can choose from a restaurant and lounge on the 122nd floor. Or you can experience the new height of the Burj Khalifa lounge on the 152nd, 153rd, and 154th floors.
The structure of the tower is based on an abstraction of the Hymenocolis flower, which is basically arranged around a central core in three parts. When viewed from above, it conforms to the onion-spherical design often found across various Islamic architectures.
At the foot of the mighty tower, you will find the Dubai Mall, the dancing Dubai Fountain, and a fun and dining center that includes a number of tourist attractions.
In addition to the world’s tallest free structure, Burj Khalifa also holds the world record for the longest elevator distance and the world’s tallest restaurant.
