Standing at 828 metres, Burj Khalifa is the world's tallest structure, dominating the Dubai skyline from virtually every angle across the city. Observation decks on floors 124 and 148 offer panoramic views across the desert, the Arabian Gulf, and the dense urban fabric below. The tower photographs best at the blue hour, when city lights begin to compete with the fading sky.

Where next?

The world is wide open.
