Burj Khalifa, At The Top #8weekstogo

 

Dubai is home to the tallest, biggest and best everything in the world. One of these is the tallest building in the world, the Burj Khalifa. It stands tall at 828 meters high and has the fastest elevator in the world, taking only 60 seconds to climb 160 stories. This mighty building completely dwarfs the surrounding regular sized skyscrapers.

The ‘at the top’ tour of the Burj Khalifa takes around one hour and overloads you with information, facts and figures about the majestic building. The best part, the observation deck! You can spend as long as you like here, enjoying yet another breath taking view of Dubai.The best time of day to go, just before sunset.

The Burj Khalifa is located in downtown Dubai, next-door to the Biggest Mall in the world… The Dubai Mall. Offering over 1,200 shops and over 160 food & drink outlets, time can easily run away with you. Before you know it, you have spent over 12 hours “window shopping”.

No need for retail therapy? That’s okay, the biggest mall in the world has an Olympic sized ice rink, the largest aquarium in the world and an indoor theme park! As you do. And if all of that is not enough, prepare to be entertained by the World’s largest dancing fountain. Yes, a dancing fountain!
