At over 828 metres (2,716.5 feet) and more than 160 stories high, Burj Khalifa (burjkhalifa.ae) in Dubai holds many records, including the worlds tallest building. Now you can also be part of the record by hitching a ride onthe building's elevator to the worlds highest outdoor observation deck. Listen to special soundtracks as you ride the elevator (as you might have guessed, it's the longest elevator journey in the world)with the rhythm and beats rising to a crescendo as the elevators ascend to their destination. You have two options. You can either go to At the Top, the 124th and 125th stories, or go further up to the Sky deck, the worlds highest observation deck, at the 148th story.
