Top 10 construction world record holders

We didn’t have to look far for inspiration for this collection of world toppers. Dubai still ranks as one of the world’s tallest cities – with 51 skyscrapers all standing over 200m high, matching New York’s tally. Hong Kong has 52 but Dubai has the Burj Khalifa, and six others that stretch to over 300m – including the world’s tallest hotel (building used exclusively as a hotel), the Rose Tower, at 333m and 72-storeys.

Dubai Properties ? the best investment

Are you aware of the fact that the real estate market in Dubai has really hit the skies with foreign investors? The reason is that all the investment gurus are lining to invest hundreds of millions of dollars in the city, thanks to the gorgeous buildings been erected. All of us are aware of the Burj Khalifa?

Dubai: Castles in the sand

First on the must-see list of indoor attractions is the record-breaking Burj Khalifa, the world’s tallest building at 828m. It sprouts out of the central city like a gleaming hypodermic needle, looking superimposed against the bright blue sky. Dubai is a theme park of firsts, biggests, tallests and oddests. Khalifa, the tallest, sits next to the Dubai Mall, the world’s largest shopping centre. And it’s there you buy your tickets to ride possibly the world’s most psychedelic elevator to the viewing platform two-thirds of the way up Khalifa.

Iftar evenings ‘At the Top’ of the world

At the Top, Burj Khalifa, on Level 124 of the world’s tallest building, is celebrating the Holy Month of Ramadan with special timings and an unprecedented and first-time ever opportunity to break your fast from a vantage location. Guests can reflect on the spiritual values of the Holy Month, watch the sun set into the scenic horizon of the Arabian Sea, and break their fast with dates, complimentary of La Ronda Dates, and water, complimentary of Masafi Mineral Water, from At the Top, Burj Khalifa, this year.

Ritz Carlton To Open Worlds Tallest Hotel In Hong Kong

Maybe the Ritz-Carlton saw the Armani Hotel Dubai in the Burj Khalifa–the current tallest building in the world–as a challenge. Or, maybe the hotel group just wanted to create some local competition with the Park Hyatt Shanghai (to date the highest rooftop observation deck in Asia).

Top Interior Designs: Hotels

This relentless reiteration of the brand starts in the lobby of the Armani Hotel Dubai, where a series of bronze columns arch overhead, meeting at a point to create a towering collection of artful As. Beneath the arches, mirroring their shape, lie two oversized sofas. The combined result is a consciously contemporary, highly fashionable take on the traditional majlis. Armani Hotel Dubai occupies floors concourse to eight, as well as levels 38 and 39 of Burj Khalifa.
