We have already written an article about this 828m tall world record breaking building when we visited the observation deck. This time we are sharing a few pictures with you from the exterior. The reflection of the sun in the glass tower almost blinds you. The Burj Khalifa’s shape has been designed in separate rounded blocks each containing tens of floors. This design ensures that the building is not damaged or doesn’t get into balance problems during dessert storms or heavy wind from the sea. We end the article with a photo of the sun set.
We hebben reeds een artikel geschreven van het observatiedek op dit 828m hoge gebouw die de wereldrecordlijst aanvoert. Deze keer willen we enkele foto’s van de buitenkant met jullie delen. De weerspiegeling van de zon in de glazen toren verblind je bijna. De vorm van de Burj Khalifa werd ontworpen in verschillende ronde blokken die elk tientallen verdiepingen bevatten. Dit ontwerp zorgt ervoor dat het gebouw niet uit balans of beschadigd wordt door woestijnstormen of sterke rukwinden van op zee. We eindigen het artikel met een foto van de zonsondergang..

Wow! That is fantastic!
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures! love the third one!
Beautiful building! It is so hard to sqeeze it into a photo! (we had a hard time to fit the twin towers in kuala lumpur into the picture)
Many greetings!
Yvonne & Raphael
Truly a work of beauty! Occupants have ceiling to floor windows for a great view.
ReplyDeleteVery impressive! I've never seen anything like this. :)
ReplyDeleteYour last picture is amazing, it looks like a giant golden needle! I love all the pictures, though. Especially the one that shows the wide base and construction at the bottom. I still don't know how they can know if it would be safe in winds and storms, it would still scare me to be in it.
ReplyDeleteI prefer to be on the ground floor thank you! But the building is stunning. Not a good portrait of the folk at the bottom though. Should have used force flash!
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing looking building. Now going to check out what it was like from the top! Really love this sunset picture, and have to say I think you are a wonderful tour guide!
ReplyDeleteThat is one spectacular skyscraper!
ReplyDeleteJeetje wat is dit indrukwekkend!
ReplyDeleteIk blijf er naar kijken, groetjes Cristien.
It sure is an amazing building. I wonder how they have air conditioned it to withstand the heat coming through all that glass. The last picture is terrific.
ReplyDeleteAmazing building. I feel scared even when look up at its top..
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing!
Very impressive building and photos. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThe last photo is gorgeous Filip! Love the golden color..
ReplyDeleteYou are happy you've seen this amazing building. Your fotos are most beautifull I've seen about it. Thanks sharing.
ReplyDeleteYou have an amazing blog dear.
ReplyDeleteDubai has put itself well and truly on the global map over the past decade as one of the top places to visit.
Burj Khalifa is definitely an amazing experience – but there’s far more to the city than that.
The city’s ever-growing skyline, audacious man-made islands, mega malls, seven-star service and permanently sunny weather has transform Dubai into an international holiday destination, a regional shopping magnet, and the Middle East’s most ostentatious, glamorous party capital.
Thanks! for sharing your lovely experience in Dubai.
Your posts share good information of exactly where to go in Dubai.
