Usually when I see tall buildings I’m like “meh.”
This one, however, feels even bigger in person.

Wow looks like a hologram
Stayed there for a couple of nights and it’s definitely impressive in the flesh.
Did you know they forgot to include a sewage solution for that thing? They truck the shit out. A marvel of architectural stupidity.
Take the tour to the observation deck. Worth it.
it's an artistic representtation of that classic 3 columns sorting puzzle, something about Hanoi maybe? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tower_of_Hanoi
Dubai and Abu Dhabi have amazing architecture. It makes you feel great just to be around it 😍
I have been there four times since 2009 and it never gets old.
I like those buildings. They look awesone!
Burj Khalifa 👍
My tower feels a lot bigger in person too
Holy wow, where is that?
very bladerunner-esque
I had the same experience, truly amazing feat of engineering.
However, I did find much of the city to be repetitive, centrally planned, cookie cutter architecture. That was ~8 years ago, maybe it’s different now?
Oh! I was there 3 days ago
Spectacular!
the HVAC design for it is wild as well.
