The Burj Khalifa, located in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, is the tallest building in the world. Construction began on September 21, 2004, and the building was officially opened on January 4, 2010. The design of the Burj Khalifa was inspired by Islamic architecture and features a unique Y-shaped floor plan, which helps reduce wind resistance and improve stability. It was renamed the Burj Khalifa in honor of Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the President of the United Arab Emirates and the ruler of Abu Dhabi, who provided financial assistance to Dubai during its economic downturn. The Burj Khalifa is not only a remarkable engineering feat but also serves as an iconic symbol of Dubai's modernization and architectural prowess.
