The Burj Al Arab is a luxury hotel located in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. The architect was Tom Wright. The Burj Al Arab was built between 1994-1999. It is very tall skycrapers with 60 floors, used exclusively as a hotel and restaurant The cost of staying in a suite begins at $1,500 per night; the Royal Suite is the most expensive, at $5,000 per night. The building made of steel exoskeleton and teflon-coated fibreglass. It was built to resemble the sail of a dhow, a type of Arabian vessel. It also have a helicopter landing pad at the top. The building is unique because it as a symbolize Dubai's urban transformation and to mimic the sail of a boat.That's all about the Burj Al Arab building.Thank you.
