... Well no!
Burj Al Arab measures 321 meters (1053 feet) exactly, that is to say one meter more than the Eiffel tower in Paris ! Yes, you read correctly, this immense and luxurious construction is the same size as the Eiffel tower!!! |
The oval structure near the top, on the left, is a panoramic restaurant.
As for the small platform on the right, it is used to accomodate the helicopters of the "jet set" customers. Burj Al Arab, hotel of all superlatives, became the symbol of Dubai and the entire country. Ah! I forgot... |
