Dubai videos | Buildings | Information | History | Emirates | View
Thousands of residents and tourists crowded today around the tapering half-mile high tower, which stands at least 160 stories high. Dubai's hereditary ruler unveiled a plaque at the tower's base, kicking off inaugural festivities that included traditional Gulf Arab dance performances and skydivers landing parachutes emblazoned with the colors of the United Arab Emirates flag near the tower's base. The exact height of the tower is (828 meters) tall. Emirates news agency says Dubai's tallest building has been renamed Burj Khalifa, after UAE president. *Material from The Associated Press used in this report* Rights go toDubai Media.

@jagenrock5 they might not own the USA army, but the US would defend it if they needed it. The US has alot of assets there. and would protect them if needed. The same is with saudi arabia.

@GeorgeJansen Take into account that the building itself is constructed in a "raghead" country.
