Burj Khalifa

The Burj Khalifa, a landmark structure and a main tourist draw in Dubai, is the city's most well-known landmark and the highest structure in the world at 829.8 meters. Most people consider visiting this city's observation deck, which is located on the 124th level, a must-do activity. From this eagle's eye view, the vistas across the metropolitan skyline are just breathtaking. Before a high-speed elevator whisks you up to the observation deck for those 360-degree views out across the skyscrapers to the desert on one side and the ocean on the other, the slick observation deck experience includes a multimedia presentation on both Dubai and the construction of the Burj Khalifa (completed in 2010).

Due to Dubai's famed panoramic views of the city's lights, nighttime excursions are especially well-liked by photographers. In order to avoid lengthy lines, get your Burj Khalifa "At the Top" Entrance Ticket in advance, especially if you want to visit on a weekend. The grounds of Burj Park, which are on the ground and around the Burj Khalifa, include paths lined with sculptures created in contemporary art. You can view the Dubai Fountain show on Burj Lake in Burj Park. This is the tallest performing fountain in the world, with water displays flying up to 150 meters into the air, and it is modeled after the renowned Fountains of Bellagio in Las Vegas.
