Burj Khalifa
Burj Khalifa Tower: The world highest building
In late 2004, the construction site began. The first floor came out of the ground in late 2005, and the tower grew at a staggering speed. On 4th January 2010, the tower was inaugurated and partially opened to the public, breaking numerous world records.
828 meters high, it is almost three Eiffel Towers stacked on top of each other, and that's the record for the tallest structure ever built by man160 habitable floors, the last culminating at 636 meters height
24,348 windows, for a facade entirely made of glass and aluminum
5 years of construction, a speed record for a project of this size
the fastest elevators in the world, 18 meters per second (64 km/h) at its maximum speed
95 km is the ground distance from which you can see the tower (on a clear day)
