It's a very impressive building, and it makes your neck ache.😅
The view from the inside is very fascinating, I recommend buying a more expensive ticket to the VIP or premium floor, where you pass without queuing. 💸
The New Year's view of this tower cannot be expressed in words. 😍
I recommend everyone to visit here at least once in their life)

This building is very impressive both for its size and its beauty. We came to Dubai specifically to watch the light show and fireworks at the Burj Khalifa. It's certainly an unforgettable supershow. We didn't get into the building itself for the tour. There were no tickets. We will definitely visit it on our next visit.

Of course, this architectural masterpiece is a must-visit, even though it can be seen from afar. After 19:00, the fountain show is the most interesting: the most intense illumination of the building turns on. One of the best places to watch the show is the "G" floor of the Dubai Mall: you need to access the balcony through the Apple Store.

Burj Khalifa is an unusual and probably must-visit place. BUT we were unlucky - we stood in queues, tightly pressed against each other in a crowd of people for 2 hours!!! We were probably unlucky - we were standing wherever possible, so when we went upstairs, we didn't appreciate these views and the unusual nature of the structure at all. My advice is to spare no money to climb to the 148th floor, yes, it's twice as expensive, but it's worth it - visitors with such a ticket looked at our queue with horror and surprise, clearly not understanding what kind of crowd it was. We were on 124+125 floors, as it turned out, standing in line for this type of ticket is a common occurrence. We had a session at 8:30 p.m., maybe later, easier.

We got there by chance in the evening, we went in at 22.30 without queues and crowds. We didn't buy the ticket in advance, so it turned out to be a little more expensive. We went up to 124/125 floors. Dubai's night view is stunning, and the fountains look interesting from a height. The 3x turned out to be 15 thousand rubles, in general, nothing fantastic, having the experience of climbing different high-rise buildings in Paris, London, and the United States.

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 tallest building in the world, due to the spire, which was specially planned during construction, much larger than expected, so that no one could accidentally build higher, the height of the spire was kept secret until the last.
The special multi-level geometry of the tower building helps to break and deceive the wind, reducing the load on the tower.
The building has a condensate collection system from the air conditioning system, which allows millions of liters of fresh water to be produced.

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.

Burj Khalifa is a real architectural marvel! When I went up to the observation deck, I was amazed by the incredible view of Dubai – the city in full view, especially at sunset. Everything is organized at the highest level: the elevators are lifted at breakneck speed, the staff is very friendly, and the interior is admired for its design. As a bonus, there are different treats upstairs!
I recommend visiting this place to anyone who will be in Dubai. This is a unique experience that will be remembered for a lifetime. Be sure to book tickets in advance to avoid queues and choose a convenient time. Burj Khalifa is a symbol of what man is capable of!”

It's worth cleaning if this place is on your list of places to visit. There's a very long waiting list, so it's better to overpay and save time. But even in this case, you will have to stand in line. It is also worth paying attention to the weather. A sandstorm can ruin the experience.

A dream come true, I managed to visit the tallest skyscraper in the world! It cost us 11,000 rubles for the three of us, and the length of stay is generally unlimited. But the ticket is bought for a certain date and time, so far we have found the entrance, we have lost 10 minutes, but it's okay, they let us in! It's enough for one time, my gestalt is closed)

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.

Burj Khalifa is not only the tallest skyscraper in the world, but also a true architectural and cultural icon of Dubai. With a height of 828 meters, it has become a symbol of the ambitious spirit of this city and attracts millions of tourists annually. Here is my detailed and interesting review of visiting this majestic building.
Architecture and design
The Burj Khalifa was opened in 2010 and designed by the architectural firm Skidmore, Owings & Merrill. Its design is inspired by Islamic architecture and natural forms, which makes it not only functional, but also aesthetically appealing. The skyscraper consists of 163 floors, and its graceful shape provides not only beauty, but also resistance to strong winds.
Ascent to the observation deck
I visited the observation deck "At The Top", located on the 124th floor. Booking tickets in advance turned out to be a great idea, as the queue was quite long on the day of the visit. The elevator ride was exciting: the speed of the elevator reaches 10 meters per second, and in a matter of seconds I was at an altitude of 456 meters.
Views of Dubai
As soon as the elevator doors opened, I saw a stunning view of the city. The site offers a panoramic view of Dubai and its surroundings: sparkling skyscrapers, endless deserts and the Persian Gulf. I was amazed at how quickly the landscape of the city is changing, and how it continues to evolve. The observation deck also has interactive screens where you can see what is at each point of the horizon.
Atmosphere and facilities
The atmosphere on the observation deck was magical. Tourists from all over the world gathered here to capture this moment. I enjoyed a cup of fragrant tea I bought at a cafe and watched the sunset. It was one of the most beautiful sights I've ever seen - the sun's rays reflected off the glass facades of buildings, creating an amazing play of light.
Sights around
After visiting the Burj Khalifa, I took a walk around the area around the skyscraper. The Dubai Fountain Water Fountain, located at the foot of the Burj Khalifa, was a great way to end my visit. Fountains "danced" to the music, and the play of light and water created a magical atmosphere.
Conclusion
Burj Khalifa is not just a skyscraper, it is a symbol of Dubai's incredible opportunities and ambitions. My visit was full of emotions and impressions, and I can confidently say that this place is worth a visit. It is impossible to describe in words the delight and admiration that I felt when looking at this architectural masterpiece. I strongly recommend that anyone visiting Dubai include the Burj Khalifa in their itinerary – it will be an unforgettable experience!

I may be expressing an unpopular opinion, but it's not worth your money when visiting, it's better to look outside from different angles, I've been with guests three times, I've never been inspired for this price, many places have similar views just a little lower. Cash tickets are not always available day to day, there are more top-end times (sunrise/sunset)- it's more expensive, there are queues up to an hour waiting, you won't guess

It's an amazing place! I visited Burj Khalifa for the first time in 2023 — it is a real symbol of Dubai!
The view from the observation deck is breathtaking: the city is in the palm of your hand, and the sunsets here are simply magical.
The architecture impresses with scale and grace, especially against the background of evening lighting and fountains at the foot.

I never would have thought that I would study abroad, to be honest, I doubted it for a long time, it was scary to fly. But in the end, AM I STUDYING IN DUBAI? Everything turned out to be not so scary, even quite the opposite? It's a lot of movement, even outside of training, I've never experienced so many emotions and impressions, such drive, the best decision in my life. Don't be afraid, go ahead, believe in yourself and there will be such a thrill???
