Burj Khalifa-building was recently changed to the Burj Khalifa ~ Travel and Leisure

The name of this building was recently changed to the Burj Khalifa right at the time of its launch last month.

The country of Abu Dhabi, basically next door to Dubai, really offered a lot of help last year when the world economy had gone down to a crisis level, and Dubai made the decision to change the name as a way of letting them know just how much they appreciated all the financial help they received.

Continuing on, there is no other landmark in the whole world that can compare to this spectacular building. You might have seen mention of it on the news, but here we are going to talk about some of the features that are part of the reason why this building is the most beautiful one that the world has ever seen.

What's incredible about this landmark is the fact that over 160 floors of space occupy it, all with the ability to be lived in. As I'm sure you could imagine, this would cost a lot of money and the price tag of $2,000 per square foot is no laughing matter.

No, you did not read that wrong, the price that a 2,000 square foot apartment would have been sold for was almost 4 million dollars! Prices have come down to earth to some extent, but the utter thought of levels like these is absurd.

There are also a handful of offices and other commercial businesses occupying the rest of the building.

For tourists, they'll be glad to know that a top of the line hotel will also be featured here, thanks to the architecture of Giorgio Armani. A swimming pool will adorn this building near the top, in addition to a mosque, both of which will be at the highest altitudes in the world for their kind.

Everything is extremely safe here, as safety should be a foremost concern in any worldwide monument. The actual security of this building is another awesome feature because it is different than anything that has ever been seen in a building before. Special floors are at every 25 to 30 levels, having special compositions which cause them to be fire-resistant and their own air supplies.

This is truly a next generation building and should easily set the precedent for the buildings of the future as the bar has now been raised. This new era in architecture does make our world a better place.
