Burj Khalifa is the tallest skyscraper in the world and no doubt the eyes would be fascinated to catch the glimpse of this structure with its great standing height and providing breath taking views of the Dubai city when placed atop.
It is housed and adjoined to the Dubai Mall, which again is one of the largest malls in the world. One can reach this place through Metro Redline alighting down at Dubai Mall station. Once in Mall after covering some decent steps and floors, as you step outside the open area facing a water body and turning aside on to one's right, there stands the Burj Khalifa. It stands out there proud like a magnificent giant rocket as one looks at it standing at its foot and it appears to be ready to take off up into the skies. The water body at frequent interval of around 30 minutes would play a marvelous colorful musical fountain dancing to the soothing music.
To set foot into Burj Khalifa, one needs to buy the entrance ticket in the Dubai Mall, which would allow them to place themselves on the 124th floor for a view from the top and the entrance time is allotted depending upon the visitor traffic involved. We happened to get the evening slot between 9 to 10 pm. It would be better to book the tickets online in advance to avoid an unwelcoming host situation.
As your time approaches to meet it, one can on board the lift that takes to the 124th floor within in a minute accompanied with a ticking clock playing on the screen accompanied by a thrilling music in the background to lift the spirits.
Once on top, you will appreciate the workmanship that has contributed such height, which otherwise can only be experienced up on a natural mountain or from a flight taking off into the skies.
and the sight of the colorful city at the late evening hour where the surroundings are filled with the various colors of blues, greens & oranges, was just a spectacular sight from above. The vehicles down on the roads and the flyovers looked like tiny ants and the tall buildings in its radius beside appeared to be in their teens, growing up. The ticket would allow one to spend a decent time for 30-45 minutes, wherein the eyes turned merry experiencing the colorful and radiant city which looks splendid and beautiful. The cameras could not capture crisp photo given to the darkly lit atmosphere and we had to satisfy with some decent snaps from the night mode. The experience of viewing the colorful city from the toppest point with the cool breeze playing its round puts one in a state of tranquility. As the place is darkly lit in the evening, the clarity of the photos wouldn't be that great and we had to satisfy ourselves the blurred dark images missing crispiness.

As we walked down completing our delightful experience, I set out big round of applause for those brilliant minds and their hard work that had worked behind putting up this amazing structure, giving a delightful treat to the eyes.
