1 Bedroom Apartment in Burj Khalifa, Downtown with amazing Opera view

The Burj Khalifa is a stunning feat of architecture and engineering, with two observation decks on the 124th and 148th floors and a restaurant-bar on the 122nd. The worlds tallest building pierces the sky at 828m and opened in January 2010, six years after excavations began. To avoid wait times or expensive fast-track admission, book tickets online as far as 30 days in advance. Note that high humidity often cloaks Dubai in a dense haze, making views less than breathtaking. If you've bought tickets to the first observation deck (called At the Top), you'll walk past multimedia exhibits chronicling the construction of the Burj before squeezing into a lift that whisks you to the 124th floor (452m) at a speed of 10m per second. To intensify the viewing experience, you can drop a few dirhams into a high-powered telescope, which not only zeroes in on modern-day Dubai but also simulates the same view at night and in the 1980s. The world's highest observation platform, though, is called At the Top Sky and is located at 555m on the 148th floor. You'll feel like a VIP upon being welcomed by a Guest Ambassador and treated to soft drinks, coffee and dates in a fancy lounge. Aside from the views, a highlight on this floor is an interactive screen where you 'fly' to different city landmarks by hovering your hands over high-tech sensors. This is followed by a trip down to the 125th floor where another VR experience awaits: A Falcon's Eye View, which lets you see Dubai from a bird's-eye perspective. Note that prices go up during prime hours (around sunset) and that closing times may vary depending on demand and the season. You can also expect some changes at the Burj from the summer of 2019, when renovations will be taking place as part of an ambitious US$1.7 billion Marsa Al Arab project that involves building two new manmade islands on either side of the hotel. A headlining accomplishment by Emaar, Burj Khalifa underlines the can-do spirit of Dubai. Described as both a Vertical City and A Living Wonder, Burj Khalifa rises gracefully from the desert, honouring the city with its extraordinary 'union' of art, engineering and meticulous craftsmanship. At over 828 metres, the 200-plus storey structure has 160 habitable levels, more than any building in the world and features over 170,000 square metres of residential space, the Armani Hotel Dubai and Armani Residences. The Residence in Burj Khalifa is designed for the connoisseur, while the Armani Hotel Dubai brings to life the Stay with Armani promise, an exceptional lifestyle experience defined by the highest standards of aesthetics and service excellence. Connected to the tower are The Offices, a 12-storey annex of prime office space, and The Club, a four-storey health and wellness centre. The tower also offers luxurious recreational and leisure facilities including swimming pools, exclusive lounges, health and wellness facilities, a public observation deck and At. Mosphere, the worlds highest restaurant on Level 122.
