Burj Al Arab Hotel

The Amazing Burj Al Arab Hotel located in Dubai City
According to Wikipedia, the Burj Al Arab is a luxury hotel in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. The name is Arabic for "Tower of the Arabs". The Burj is managed by the Jumeirah Group and built by Said Khalil. It was designed by Tom Wright of WS Atkins PLC. At 321 metres (1,053 ft), it is the tallest building used exclusively as a hotel. However, the Rose Tower, also in Dubai, which has already topped Burj Al Arab's height, will take away this title upon its opening in April 2008. The Burj Al Arab stands on an artificial island 280 metres (919 ft) out from Jumeirah beach, and is connected to the mainland by a private curving bridge. The Burj is an iconic structure, designed to symbolize Dubai's urban transformation. The Burj has become the international symbol for Dubai. As Tom Wright, the architect, stated, "The client wanted a building that would become an iconic or symbolic statement for Dubai; this is very similar to Sydney with its Opera House, or Paris with the Eiffel Tower. It needed to be a building that would become synonymous with the name of the country."
