Welcome to the World Tallest Building: Burj Khalifa

Traveled to Dubai in the 'Indonesia Media Fam Trip' entourage media from Jakarta from 20 to 29 desember 2016 ago. The last place we visited before returning to Jakarta, is the most famous tourist attractions there. Burj Khalifa.

Burj Khalifa is located at 1 Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Blvd, Dubai. Its location is entered in a complex with the world's largest mall, Dubai Mall. Its entrance was from the Dubai Mall on the 3rd floor, not far from the Dubai Aquarium & Underwater Zoo.

When the day's work, I think it is not crowded. In fact do not, visitors still booming. Log in to Burj Khalifa was not any sign because there are stringent checks. All bags will be inspected and must pass through a metal detector. Yeah, like I'm at the airport only.

According to information from the official website of the Burj Khalifa, this building still holds the record for the world's tallest building with a height of 2716.5 feet or 828 meters. Built in 2004, Burj Khalifa was inaugurated five years later. Burj Khalifa has 162 floors are filled with hotel apartments to the office area.

Burj Khalifa has 7 record some of them as the tallest building in the world, the highest occupied floor of the building, the elevator with the longest distance to area outdoor observatories in the world.

Back to my story, the total should be three times the queue for examination. When lining up also do not get bored because a lot of the information contained on Burj Khalifa along the wall. There is also WiFi facilities that can make visitors continue to exist.

Until finally I arrived in front of the lift with a lift which is the longest tempun ajrak. The lift on the 3rd floor is to take visitors up to the 124th floor, at a height of 555 meters to the outdoor observatory area named AT the Top.

Take the lift to a height of 555 meeter with a time of 1 minute.

Slid as far as hundreds of meters, the lift shot just in time ... 1 minute! This elevator speed reaches 10 meters per second, which also makes the elevator as one of the fastest elevators in the world.

In the elevator plastered movie about the making of Burj Khalifa. Ear is not too hurt and guncangannya not felt at all. Yes, the elevator technology is fairly sophisticated.

Finally, I get to At the Top. Here, plastered Dubai panorama from a height. Dubai panorama seen from the world's tallest building, the Burj Khalifa.

Building skyscrapers miniature tub. Arabian Gulf visible in the distance, face to face with the desert separated by urban areas. Everyone made stunned, with the landscape.

Although outdoor, there is a clear glass that protects visitors from exposure to high winds. So more and more comfortable to linger for missionaries there. Oh yes, you can also take the floor again but not outdoor observatory area.

Tokto souvenir shops also terjaja both floors 124 and 125. curios of glasses, T-shirts, key chains and others that the typical words Burj Khalifa. The price is also not very expensive.
