Record Breaking Feats
Burj
Khalifa has broken a dozen world records with the most recent being the grand
light show which took place when ushering in the new year. The building hosts
one of the world’s fastest elevators moving at speeds of up to 10m/s. The lift
also has the longest travel distance in the world. At the Top, SKY deck is
world’s highest observation deck. Coming close is Canton Tower in Guanzhou,
China. Holding a world record is a big deal! Come experience what it feels like

Experience the Emirati Culture
Nothing
strange about Burj Khalifa holding everything opulent. It’s only reflection of the Emiratis, way of life (the
high flying kind of a life). The building hosts the posh Burj Club, the luxe
Armani hotel to mention but a few. Visiting these joints of interest doesn’t
require you to be a resident to experience the palace like, fine lifestyle, all
you need is a ticket to Burj Khalifa to At.Mosphere on 122nd floor,
stay at Armani hotel or dine at Armani Lounge. Remember, these are perks only
experienced in Dubai.
Get Awed by Dubai Dancing Fountain
Fountains
are impressive, but what can surpass the beauty and wonder of Dubai Fountain
which is perfectly set on Burj Khalifa Lake-World’s largest choreographed
musical fountain show. Did that make you itch a little bit? It’s magical, large
and a sight to behold especially if viewed from Burj Khalifa’s At the Top
observation decks. The timing for the dancing show varies in the course of the
week, and if you’re booking for it via itickets.ae, then you’ll be advised accordingly. Besides, you can take a boat
ride on Burj Lake as you experience the wonder and beauty of the fountains.
