Dubai Photos

Burj Khalifa was finally open on the 4th of January 2010. They managed to complete the tallest building in the world in 5 years and did a show that no one will be able to repeat for quite some time. It was just amazing and I bet very expensive.

Actually I felt a bit sceptical when I was going to take some pictures of the Burj Dubai opening ceremony…

The Burj Khalifa opening ceremony was announced to start at 17:00 on the 4th of January 2010. I came to The Dubai Mall at about 15:30, easily parked the car on parking level 5 and went to see what’s going on.

This accident happened on the 8th of January 2010 at Sheikh Zayed Road close to Oasis shopping centre.

It was not really clear how it happened. The barrier between the carriageways was broken and the car was just completely crashed. There were 2 ambulance cars and a few police cars and policemen.

It seems the driver was alive as the ambulance guys fixed him on a stretcher and were doing something. Hopefully, he is still alive.

Burj Dubai is the tallest skyscraper in the world. Here you will find some facts about Burj Dubai and a photogallery.
