Burj Khalifa

Burj Khalifa (arapski: برج دبي, doslovno "Toranj Kalifa") neboder je u Dubaiju, u Ujedinjenim Arapskim Emiratima i najviša je građevina na Zemlji. Visok je 818 metara s antenom. Trebao se zvati Burj Dubai, ali je u čast šeika Kalifa al-Nahjan nazvan Burj Khalifa.

Burj Khalifa je samo jedan od predviđenih sličnih nebodera u novom centru grada, "Downtown Dubaiju". Idejni je autor ovog projekta američki arhitekt Adrian Smith, a projektantska tvrtka je Skidmore, Owings and Merrill iz Chicaga. Kako se radi o divovskom građevinskom pothvatu, mnogo je izvođača radova, među kojima su najznačajniji korejski Samsung, belgijski Besix, emiratski Arabtec i američki Turner. Investitor, Emaar Properties, u većinskom je vlasništvu Mohameda bin Rašida Al Maktuma, vladara Dubaija.

Gradnja je započela 21. 9. 2004., a neboder je otvoren 4. 1. 2010. Cijeli Burj Khalifa koštao je oko 4.1 milijarde američkih dolara.

Сделал небольшое видео о нашем посещении самой высоко расположенной смотровой площадки в мире – на небоскребе Бурдж Халифа в Дубае . (Обязательно досмотрите до конца - там мое дитя дает исчерпывающую оценку этому мероприятию :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wrbEFmytwoY&feature=youtu.be

A must to see if you are in Dubai. After many research, i've found the price tickets better on their own website. Go around 17pm, it's a more expensive, but you'll get to see day, sunset, and night❤

It's not worthy going up in the tower. I would say it's even better watching it from the outside, maybe from the fountains. Up in the tower u don't get to see different views than from any other up fl

You can't say you've been to Dubai if you haven't gone to the top of the Burj Khalifa! Prebook your tickets online for a better rate and definitely go to the new outdoor viewing terrace.
