The breath-taking view from the top of Dubai's Burj Khalifa, the world's tallest high-rise, has been closed to the public due to problems with power supply, the tower's management said in a statement. "Due to unexpected high traffic, the observation deck experience at the Burj Khalifa has been temporarily closed for maintenance and upgrade," the statement said.
"Technical issues with the power supply are being worked on," it added, without specifying when visitors could expect to ascend again for a panoramic view of Dubai. The glistening concrete, glass and steel pinnacle rising 828 metres (2,717 feet) out of the desert sands was inaugurated just over a month ago in a lavish ceremony and international media coverage. The observation deck on the 124th floor, called "At the Top," was the only part of the Dubai icon that was open to the public.
