Burj Khalifah

The Burj Khalifah is currently the tallest building in the world. It is located in Dubai, UAE. It really is a beautiful site to behold. Though, it kinda reminds me of a pencil. The designers have situated the building very well. The Burj Khalifa is positioned in a small body of water so that, despite the massive numbers of buildings that surround it, the Burj Khalifa can be comfortably seen from many vantage points. 

I love this building! Just behind are steps that lead to a courtyard area that can fit many people who want to gaze at the Burj Khalifa. To the left and right of the courtyard are restaurants that offer al fresco dining. This location is just a few minutes walk from where Vania and I were staying during our Dubai visit. 

These is the entrance to a really posh hotel and relatively small shopping mall. The Dubai Mall is just a short walk inside and to the right. You can see a bit of the Burj Khalifa at the top right of this photo. This area is within five minutes walking distance of the apartment where Vania and I were staying during her visit. The apartment belonged to a colleague who gone back to the states on holiday.
