Burj Al Arab


BURJ - AL - ARAB


Unlike other countries, unfortunately Dubai's icon has always kept changing with time, however before the Burj Khalifa tower, it used to be the Palm Jumeirah and before that the Burj-Al-Arab. The Burj Al Arab has been termed as "the only 7 star hotel in the world" and is the third largest hotel in the world. The 60 floor Hotel's structure is uniquely designed to mimic the shape of a boat and is located 1000 feet offshore on the Dubai King Fahad highway, which has 18 elevators. The construction took 5 years and opened in 1999 with an overall cost of $ 650 Million. Burj Al Arab stands on a man made island 280 meters offshore. This hotel is also known as " The Tower of the Arabs". 
As I entered into the hotel, my eye  mesmerized by seeing its mind blowing interior. It was the best thing I ever seen in my life. There was a Skyview bar on 27th floor, which has the costliest cocktail in the world. The cocktail is a mixture of different alcholos with gold flakes in it.
