Sightseeing in Dubai either has to start or end with a visit to the tallest building in the world — the Burj Khalifa. The magnificent centrepiece of Downtown Dubai offers some spectacular views from its highest outdoor observatory in the world, spread across levels 148 (At The Top SKY) and 124 (At The Top). Pictured is the lobby of The Residences with 196 cymbals.
