Every prestigious country has a building of its own that will characterize the country. For instance, Paris has the Eiffel Tower, Italy has its Tower Pisa, and just recently Dubai built its own too called Burj Dubai Tower. This piece of information has been covered by numerous channels since that building is the world’s tallest skyscraper. It reaches a height of 2,684 feet (818 meters). This construction has cost the moderate amount of $1.5 billion.
However, recently the tower has been renamed and is now known as the Burj Khalifa. This occurred since at some point the constructions stopped due to a lack of money. The president of the United Arab Emirates, Khalifa Bin Zayed lent huge amount of money allowing the construction to continue.
This skyscraper is the representation of new techniques. Indeed, each floor of this building is capable of rotating independently. This rotation is occurring thanks to the wind fitted between each floor as explained a journalist on CNN. More than 160 floors formed the skyscraper. Not only luxury apartments are constructed, the tower is also going to be home of a hotel designed by Giorgio Armani.
It appears that plans to build similar skyscrapers in other countries such as Canada, Europe, and South Korea have been formulated. The huge mediatization of this event has charmed other countries, which now want their own skyscrapers. And now that techniques have been discovered to build high skyscraper, the race will start…
