There’s honestly not a whole lot that I like about the flashy new high-rise part of Dubai, but the Burj Khalifa is the one obvious exception.
No matter where I see it from at whatever time of day, I always seem to go straight for the camera to try and frame the thing in a way that shows how imposing it is even over the rest of Dubai’s tall jagged skyline.
Perhaps my favorite view, though, is still from the plaza between the Mall of Dubai and the souk-like creation across from it. The Khalifa sits at the top of the area, looming larger than it has any right to.
My last night in Dubai, while I was killing time until my ridiculously timed flight to Istanbul, I even found a concert going on right at the base of the tower. The music was pretty medicore, but the view was as amazing as always.
, they'll send a little bit my way at NO extra cost for you.
