It is one of the most international recognizable iconic landmarks in Dubai, and its location, being both close to the airport and to the mall means that is is a very popular business location.

Dubai’s ruler Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid al-Maktoum named the tower after the president of the United Arab Emirates and ruler of the neighboring Abu Dhabi emirate, Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed al-Nahayan.

As its builder Emaar Properties stated, it was the herald of a new beginning for Dubai. The £1 billion tower was launched with a glorious ceremony comprised of light shows and fireworks display.

The Burj Khalifa was a symbol of hope and optimism which exhibited Dubai’s new wealth and industrial prowess towards the future.
