20 Breathtaking Wonders Of The World You Have To See

Burj Khalifa, Dubai

A true wonder of the modern age, the world’s tallest building soars above the desert metropolis of Dubai. At a ground-breaking 2,717-feet-high, it dwarfs the surrounding skyscrapers.

The Burj lays claim to many other records too: being the tallest free-standing structure and having the most number of stories (160) in the world among them. Its striking design was inspired by minarets and a desert flower.
