Burj Khalifa







These are my photos of the world's tallest building! The Burj Khalifa is 828 m high and cost $1.5 billion to build! It was originally going to be called the Burj Dubai but at the last minute it was changed to honour the President of nearby Abu Dhabi Khalifa bin Zahed Al Nahyan who had to help them out when they had a cash flow problem owing to the global financial of 2007.

Look how it dwarfs all the other skyscrapers and note the haze, it was not always a clear blue sky, in fact although it was so hot the sky was not blue at all.
