I am Burj Khalifa

Today we will explore the world's tallest building, the Burj Khalifa.



First we must get tickets at the Dubai Mall. They are 100 AED if you buy them early.

Now that we have tickets, we can begin our tour.

The elevator is the fastest in the world at 10m/s, yet you feel almost no movement. It will take us up the 124 stories to the observation deck in about 60 seconds.

There is also a store here, that sells clocks, polo shirts, and travel locks to remember your trip by.

Time to return to the ground.
