Introduction

The Burj Khalifa rises 828 m across 163 floors in downtown Dubai, UAE, the world's tallest building since 2009. Designed by SOM with a Y-shaped plan inspired by the desert flower Hymenocallis and a tapering spire, it defines the Dubai skyline. High-speed lifts reach the 124/125 and 148 floor observatories for sweeping views of the Persian Gulf, the Palm Islands and the desert; at its base, the Dubai Mall and the musical fountain put on nightly shows against the tower's lights. Both an engineering marvel and a symbol of the Emirates' skyward ambition, it is the definitive Dubai landmark.
