Dubai - Burj Khalifa

As of today, the tallest building in the world. And we went up it!

Of course, you can see this from anywhere in the city. This is from the taxi on the way in.

From the bottom by day.

And by night.

The ticket office is in the mall next door.

This from the 124th floor. That's 442m of it's 828m total height.

Over the city.

Now, in front of the building is a lake. A lake, not a pond. Every night about 20min apart, the fountains and lights in the lake do a little (actually, big) dance for the public. This is what it looks like from above.

And this is what it looks like from the lakeside.

This is what the people who watch it look like.
