What are the landmark buildings in Dubai?

Over the years, Dubai has rapidly become one of the most prosperous cities in the world with its astonishing development speed. Walking in this city, you can find many iconic buildings:

Opened in 2010, the Burj Khalifa was the tallest building in the world at the time, with a height of 829 meters. It is located in the heart of Dubai, surrounded by the famous Dubai Mall, Dubai Fountain and Dubai Opera. Designed by Adrian Smith, the tower houses residential areas, restaurants and an Armani hotel.

2. Sheikh Saeed Al Maktoum House

This building is located in the Al Shindagha area and was built in 1896 as the residence of the Al Maktoum ruling family. It is ideally located overlooking the Arabian Gulf, Denali and Bur Dubai – an area that has been the city’s main trading area since ancient times. Today the building is a museum and contains many artifacts of great significance in the history of worship. It is open to tourists every day, and you can learn more about the history of the United Arab Emirates that you don’t know.
