After visiting Burj Khalifa, only positive impressions remained. This is a truly grandiose structure, a symbol of luxury and excellence. Inside the building, you can feel the atmosphere of another city surrounded by shopping malls, offices and apartments. The elevators in Burj Khalifa are a real work of engineering, fast and silent.
Climbing to the upper floors, you can enjoy spectacular views of the city and appreciate the scale of this incredible structure. An excursion to the Burj Khalifa will be an unforgettable experience and leave vivid memories.

The tallest building in the world😎 A must-visit in Dubai. In the evening, a light show is held, you can watch riding next to a boat in the pond. It is always crowded and positive. Nearby there is a large mall with shops, an aquarium and cafes. Atmospheric, statuesque, colorful:)

It's worth visiting at least once - definitely. Take photos, videos, meet the sunset.
It is worth visiting Burj Khalifa for the following reasons:
Scale and records. The tallest building in the world stands at 828 meters, which is equal to three Eiffel Towers. It has the largest number of floors and the tallest elevators.
Versatility. Burj Khalifa has restaurants, shops, retail halls, office space, gyms, private apartments and hotels.
Stunning view. The main goal of most tourists is to visit the observation deck At The Top Sky at an altitude of 555 meters above the ground. The view from here is stunning — the whole city is at a glance.
A place for filming movies. Burj Khalifa has been seen several times in the frames of famous blockbusters. The most famous include "Independence Day: Rebirth" and "Mission Impossible".
Interesting:
Initially, they wanted to name the building after the emirate where it stands — Burj Dubai. However, soon the authors of the project changed their minds and added the name of the ruler of the UAE, Khalifa ibn Zayed al Nahyan. The name can be translated into Russian as "the king's tower".
Burj Khalifa holds a number of official Guinness World records: it houses the longest elevator in the world, it is the tallest building and the tallest man-made structure that has ever been built.
The building has 163 floors. It has 900 individual apartments.
The Burj Khalifa is built on the principle of a pyramid, but with asymmetrical steps. They unload the weight of the structure, cutting through the wind currents.
There is no sewer system in the skyscraper. It turned out to be ineffective. Therefore, trucks arrive at the building every day, which take out the whole thing.
If you look at the Burj Khalifa from above, its shape resembles a tropical flower - hymenocallis (also called spider lily). It symbolizes the heart of the desert.
I recommend:
Buy tickets online and in advance. It's cheaper and more reliable this way. You can use online services.
Come by sunset. The most spectacular shots are guaranteed.
Plan your time based on the queue.
Choose weekdays to visit. There are more people on Friday and Saturday.
Arrive in advance, taking into account the time for navigation. Dubai Mall is big.
Download the Dubai Mall navigator. It's easier not to get lost in the mall with him.
In winter, grab a sweater. The outdoor terrace of the observation deck is cool in the evenings.
p.s. in general, the orcasion is recommended) Take a VIP - No queues, no time limit.))

The Burj Khalifa is a truly grandiose structure that is worth visiting during a trip to Dubai. Inside, the atmosphere is indescribable, as if you find yourself in another city surrounded by shopping malls, offices and apartments. Elevators are a real work of engineering, fast and silent. The cost of climbing to the 154th floor is just over $200, including snacks, coffee and desserts. Among the disadvantages are a long queue for elevators and a fear of heights on open balconies. However, the impressions of visiting this place are unforgettable.

The Burj Khalifa building is a business card of Dubai. This is an impressive structure with a height of 828 meters, which will not leave anyone indifferent. Around the sights there are restaurants, cafes, fountains, parks, hotels, shopping centers, the sea of everything, as well as the famous singing fountains.
There were both in the afternoon and in the evening, the impressions are indescribable, we definitely recommend you to visit!)

Great place! The tallest tower in the world! Of course, there are many different facilities in such a tall building: restaurants, a hotel, offices and so on. The observation decks on the 147-148 floors and 168 floors are of interest to tourists.

A great place for tourists! The Burj Khalifa is a well-visited symbol of Dubai.Some attractions are not so big but have a lot of meaning and a rich history, but Burj Khalifa is one of the tallest skyscrapers in the world.Who knows what skyscrapers there will be still remains a deep mystery, but perhaps the builders are already planning a plan

В этом 2024 году я отдыхала в ОАЭ. Прекрасная и безопасная страна для комфортного отдыха. Море, солнце, сладости и многое другое. Вечером мы посетили это прекрасное место. Играла музыка, все блестело и сверкало. В определенное время смотрели шоу " поющие фонтаны". Можно подняться на сверхвысотный небоскреб Бурдж-Халифа..( самое высотное и многоэтажное здание в мире).

This is an Arabic fairy tale!!)))) I really liked it, but not on the tower itself, although the elevator with music and graphics and lifting in a minute, of course there is fire, but the tower has an atmospheric, yes a lot of people, but it is exciting and uniting everyone is impressive. Singing fountains are not lit in a childish way))) Italians nearby sang and sobbed when performing the Italian version))) yes, and we are with them)))
By the way, Burj Khalifa is perfectly visible from the plane)

Very cool, very large-scale, very exciting. It was cool not only on the observation deck, but also in the elevator, which flies 500m in 20 seconds, and the history of construction, and the museum, in general, come and you will not regret it. We were in the evening at 22-30. Not a single person.

Burj Khalifa is the true embodiment of grandeur and modern architectural beauty. This incredible 828-meter skyscraper is not just a building, it is an icon of the modern world.
1. Architecture and design:
Burj Khalifa impresses with its elegance and innovative approach to design. The facade, interior decoration, typography - everything is thought out to the smallest detail. This architectural masterpiece is the epitome of the genius of human creativity.
2. View platforms:
A visit to the Burj Khalifa offers a unique opportunity to experience the grandeur and spaciousness from a bird's eye view. Panoramic view platforms allow you to admire spectacular views of Dubai from a height that cannot be overestimated.
3. History and significance:
Burj Khalifa is not just a symbol of modernity, it is a symbol of strength and prosperity. Its construction was a testament to technological progress and human striving for new heights. This skyscraper is not just a tall tower, it is a monument of courage and greatness.
In conclusion, a visit to the Burj Khalifa leaves unforgettable impressions and admiration for the greatness of the human mind.

As they say, "I'm impressed, but not from the bottom of my heart" and that's why.
Despite the fact that the Burj Khalifa is the tallest building in the world, the view from it is not to say that it is breathtaking (124-125 floors). The city is always covered in a haze and as a result, you will not be able to enjoy this view 100%.
The cost in my opinion is cosmic and it is not worth the money, because there are other observation platforms in Dubai with a lower price and a more spectacular view.
We had been there since the morning, almost from the beginning of the opening, so we did not have a question of queues. Perhaps the evening view would be more impressive, but there is another question: not to crowd, to stand in line for an hour or two. Is it worth it?
Many people talk about VIP and a higher floor. I'll say, "Yes, go if you have money burning your pocket."
I do not plan to visit again when I am in Dubai, unlike other sites.

A high-tech hairpin clinging to the clouds. A beautiful view from the observation deck, an excellent restaurant with equally good views, a stylish hotel and decent apartments.
Pairing with the Dubai Mall is captivating - you can live for months without getting out into the city - everything is literally under your feet - from clothes to food.

The height is of course steep, the view is interesting, but the view is of concrete jungle and water surface. It is difficult to take good photos because of the reflection, dirty windows and constant haze over the city. In addition, there are a lot of people and huge queues for the elevator. And we were not even in the season. To me, it's not justifiably expensive.
On the plus side, an interesting view of the dancing fountains. I advise you to visit at sunset. You can also purchase package tickets with other attractions, so it will be cheaper than buying separately.
It is better to buy tickets in advance, a couple of weeks in advance. You can buy it online.

In Dubai, this place is a must-visit: in the evening you can sit in a cozy restaurant, enjoying delicious food and cocktails, watch the thundering fountain show and the iridescent Burj Khalifa, take many beautiful photos and videos. There is nothing to do in the tower itself, there are plenty of skyscrapers in Dubai, and the view from the upper floors is no worse.

It is better to admire the Burj Khalifa from the outside, and the photos are more beautiful and the impressions are brighter. There are many beautiful locations with fountains outside, from the balconies of the Dubai Mall, from lawns, etc. It is better to watch fountains from the balconies of restaurants on the 2nd floor (the amount of the check is 150 dirhams per person, and you need to book a table in advance). There are crowds of people at the fountains themselves, and it takes a long time to wait for the start. For example, the fountain show is promised to start at 19.00, but in fact it will start at 20.00. And all this time you will have to stand in the crowd. The show itself is beautiful, but we expected more.
The tour to the observation deck is tedious because of the queues. We stood in queues to the elevators (there are only two of them) (about an hour) longer than we were at the top. We spent 30 minutes on top, took pictures on all sides in different versions, with wings, sitting, standing, together, etc. Souvenirs on top are the same as those on the bottom, they cost ten times more expensive than on the market. A photo for 250 dirhams with a book in a black dermantine A4 cover looks rough, and you can't put it on the shelf, since it takes up a lot of space (at least 50cm). For comparison, in the Museum of the Future, in the observation room on a palm tree and in a Gold frame for 150 dirhams, it is much better to design a photo in a glass frame with water and snow effect, it will fit any interior and will not take up much space on the shelf. Both there and there, if you buy a photo, then the rest will be sent to you by email.
Another disadvantage of the tour to Burj Khalifa is that it is difficult to find the entrance to the observation deck. All the maps show the entrance to the Burj Khalifa from the street, and he is from the Dubai Mall! There is no sign (entrance to the observation deck), they found only one by one. You can buy a ticket for the tour before the tour (pay with a Gazprombank Union Pay card or in cash), we bought on the Sputnik8 website. On the Burj Khalifa website (as well as on other official sites of Dubai attractions), Russian cards are not accepted for payment, so you will not be able to buy a ticket through the official website. The cost of a ticket to the observation deck is about 7500r (at the rate of 25 rubles for 1 dirham). It's not worth it. The view from below is more spectacular. It is better to spend this money on a restaurant with a good view of the fountains and Burj Khalifa.
In general, it is expensive and beautiful, like everything in Dubai.

The tallest building in the world. After paying for a VIP ticket, you will go to the waiting area, where you will be treated to sweets and drinks. Then there will be a short tour to the elevator and a pass without a queue to the tower. You will go up to the 154th floor where you will be greeted by live music and a buffet. The views are beautiful. There is an outdoor viewing balcony with a paid photographer. Everything is done beautifully

Briefly about the main thing - the view from the top of the building is breathtaking many times in a row (more than five ...) - the feeling that we (Russians) are on the very roof of the world.
I remembered the term of the dashing 90s "to protect!!
The main thing is short, but loud for the Authoritative Administration of an Authoritative Leader:
"The elevators in Burj Khalifa are a real work of engineering art, fast and silent"!

I visited the 148th floor. The price includes a small treat at the gathering place of the group, as well as drinks and cookies on the 148th floor. The view from above is not bad, there are a lot of people. You can use one ticket to visit the 148th floor and the available floors below. Fountains are not visible very well, and of course it's not the same without music. In general, I visited once and that's enough

Of course you need to visit! Take VIP tickets, there are many advantages: a buffet separate from the crowd, steeper seats, and of course elevators without queues! However, not everything is unlimited) only the first glass of champagne, the rest is paid). The views are fascinating! I recommend visiting at sunset, then the sun sets and the city lights turn on!!!!

Visiting Burj Khalifa is an unforgettable experience that will leave a lasting impression. For a long time I dreamed of seeing this skyscraper with my own eyes, and finally my dream came true!
Climbing to the observation deck is a real adventure. The elevators take off at lightning speed, climbing to the 124th floor in a minute. The view from the top is simply breathtaking! The whole of Dubai is spread out under your feet like on a map, and the horizon merges with the sky.
The pictures from Burj Khalifa turned out to be just perfect! I took several panoramic photos and a lot of selfies against the background of this majestic structure.
The skyscraper itself is an architectural marvel! Its design and scale are simply amazing. I can't help but be surprised by the engineering genius who created this masterpiece.
Minuses:
Queues: There was a fairly large queue at the entrance. I recommend buying tickets online in advance to avoid a long wait.
Price: Tickets to the observation deck are quite expensive, but this is justified given the grandeur of the structure and the unforgettable view.
Generally:
Visiting Burj Khalifa is an unforgettable adventure that every tourist in Dubai should experience. This is a place where beauty, power and grandeur combine. I definitely recommend everyone to visit this amazing attraction!

I recommend visiting Dubai Mall and Burj Khalifa in the evening, as I think the illumination and light show on the tower itself will impress a lot of people. With regard to the fountain shows that take place every 30 minutes . in the evening (if I'm not mistaken, from 19 to 23 hours), then get ready for what really happens every 30 minutes, but it takes 3-4 minutes until the musical composition ends. Especially the Burj Khalifa location will appeal to the female half, as there are many art objects for photos (Angel wings on the background of the Khalifa, light dandelions, podium, etc.)

There are a lot of people, if you want to find Dubai chocolate, then do not buy it in the Mall. It is available in Sharjah in the Al Zahia shopping center. And the people are not worth their money , but all the Indians and locals laugh at us . What kind of joke is this? You will buy real chocolate only online and only on time. Let's make another story for ourselves, first we'll buy a chewing gum, then a lollipop . And then they will take out the Dubai chocolate. He's ordinary and not worth his money!

The Burj Khalifa skyscraper in Dubai, UAE, is a true symbol of the city and offers a truly exciting experience. Starting with its architectural splendor, it delights with its futuristic style, which is perfectly combined with the stunning beauty of Dubai as a whole.
Even before its opening, this skyscraper was nicknamed the "Dubai Tower" and attracted huge attention from all over the world. In 2007, it became the tallest building in the world, and a year later acquired another title - "the tallest building in the history of mankind." But these achievements only emphasize the primacy and importance of Burj Khalifa, which rightfully occupies a leading position among all skyscrapers.
However, the architects of this magnificent structure do not stop there. They are already announcing new, more ambitious projects that only exist on paper, but are already arousing interest and excitement. This suggests that Burj Khalifa is just the beginning, and the future of even more exciting skyscrapers in Dubai promises to be bright and impressive.
The past and present of this magnificent structure dedicated to Sheikh Khalifa ibn Zayed are the greatest achievement and symbol of the city of Dubai. It has become not only an icon of architecture, but also a symbol of strength, luxury and progress of the UAE. Burj Khalifa continues to attract tourists and visitors from all over the world, offering them the opportunity to enjoy stunning views of the city and experience the grandeur of modern architecture. This skyscraper is becoming an integral part of Dubai's cultural and tourist heritage, and its reputation is only getting stronger every year.

"Up does not mean up"
We put a marker at this point of ascent.
It's easy and fun. I haven't been at this height in a long time.
I remembered my childhood and the aching feeling of delight in my chest.
It's a bit tedious to queue up and down for 30-40 minutes in one direction. But these are all small things. I recommend. It inspires some people and gives them new feelings and thoughts.

A few tips:
1) take a ticket in advance (it's twice as cheap this way)
2) it's better to go in the afternoon, in the evening you can't see anything
3) you can plan a day, visit the tower, then the aquarium, and in the evening at the singing fountain show to close this location at a time
