Discover Burj Khalifa

Standing proudly at 828m, the world's tallest building is truly a feat of engineering. Built over five years from 2004 to 2009, the building represents Dubai's ambition and passion.

Design inspiration

The iconic tower's design is rooted firmly in Dubai's heritage, with the stepped spiral plan representing traditional Middle Eastern architecture. Its design motif takes cues from Islamic geometric traditions and features interlocking circles radiating out from the tower’s footprint.

Sky-high experiences

Burj Khalifa views can be taken in from two dedicated observation decks, At The Top and At The Top SKY. You can also dine at At.mosphere restaurant on floor 122 or visit The Lounge, Burj Khalifa – spread across floors 152, 153 and 154 – making it the tallest lounge on the planet.
