Burj Khalifa,  the World’s Tallest Icon. Burj Khalifa is the undisputed crown of Dubai. A tour to Dubai without visiting Burj Khalifa is like eating a burger without cheese. Standing on the Tallest building in the world is fun and an adventure in itself.
The height of Burj Khalifa is 828 meters, and it’s not just the highest building in the world, but it’s the symbol of modern engineering and vision.
For every traveler visiting Dubai, Burj Khalifa is the number one destination because it offers a view that a person cannot find anywhere else in the world.

The Magnificent Experience at the Top:

To truly appreciate the scale of Dubai, visitors must visit and go up to the observation deck and see the real view of Dubai from the sky. The journey starts from the Dubai Mall,
where visitors enter a high-speed elevator that races fast, and within minutes, you reach the observation area where the door opens to a stunning 360-degree view of Dubai city, the vast desert, and the Arabian Gulf.

What you can explore at the top:

• Level 124 & 125; the most popular floor of Burj Khalifa, where everyone can visit, and this floor has an outdoor terrace on which a high-powered telescope is installed for visitors from which all travelers can see the city of Dubai.
  The ticket price for this floor is between 179 and 199 AED.
• Level 148 (SKY):  A luxury lounge that is officially the highest observation deck in the world. from level 126 to level 148 you have to buy a ticket priced at 399-550AED with this ticket, you don’t have to wait in line. In the lift, you will have access to the fast track from where you can come faster without waiting in lines. The ticket is expensive because at level 148, you will have snacks, drinks, and a personal guide for your tour, and it has limited slots.
• The View: From here, you can see the famous Palm Jumeirah and the World Islands clearly on a sunny day. Palm Jumeirah is also best for a visit.

The Magic of the Dubai Fountain:

At the foot of this massive tower lies the Burj Lake, which is the world’s most famous water fountain. It’s not just a water show, it’s a spectacular performance where water shoots up to 150 meters in the air and is perfectly synchronized with music and colorful lights.
These fountains put colors in the night in Dubai, and they can make your night colorful.

Ways to enjoy the fountain show:

• The Waterfront Promenade: Watch the show for free from the walking area outside Dubai Mall.
• Abra Lake Ride: Take a traditional wooden boat ride to get as close as possible to the dancing water.
• The Boardwalk: A floating platform that lets you stand just meters away from the fountain.

Planning Your Visit Like a Pro:

If you are planning your visit, the most important point is to book your ticket online well in advance, because these tickets sell out instantly, and you don’t want to miss the sunset from the top of Burj Khalifa.
Because from the top you can see the city in three different ways during the daylight, the beautiful orange sunset, and finally getting glittering night lights.

To make your visit to the world’s tower great, plan ahead. The first thing you need to do is book your tickets early on the official website. Tickets for times like just before sunset get sold out fast. Booking early makes sure you get to see the city change from day, to night.

Visiting at the time lets you see the city in different ways. You can see it in the afternoon sun then watch the amazing sunset and finally see the city all lit up at night. Also get to the Dubai Mall early. It is a large place and it takes time to get to the “At The Top” entrance. A good idea is to spend two to three hours. This way you have time to look around and then head to the waterfront to see the Dubai Fountain show.

Essential tips for travelers:

• Entrance: You can only enter “At The Top” through the Lower Ground floor of the Dubai Mall.
• Timing: Give yourself at least 2 hours to fully enjoy the view and the fountain show afterward.
• Photography: For the best full-length photo of the Burj Khalifa, stand near the Souk Al Bahar bridge.
• After enjoying the modern engineering of Dubai, also visit and enjoy the Dubai Desert safari. After modern engineering,  the desert will give you peace
