Striving upward through the centuries – Egyptian pyramids, medieval Gothic cathedrals, the first skyscrapers of the nineteenth century, modern skyscrapers. If people don’t have wings, then we’ll climb higher!
1. Dubai (UAE) – the largest city in the United Arab Emirates, the leader in the number of tallest skyscrapers. The tallest building in the world is located here, of course, the Burj Khalifa, with a height of 828 meters.
2. Tokyo (Japan)
The capital of Japan is home to the tallest TV tower in the world, the second tallest building in the world (after Burj Khalifa) – Tokyo Skytree. The height of the building is 634 meters.
3. Shanghai (China) – the world’s largest city in terms of population. This metropolis is home to the third tallest building in the world – the Shanghai Tower, 632 meters high. To keep the height from turning your head, the Shanghai World Financial Center (492 m) and Jin Mao Tower (421 m) stand nearby
4. New York (USA)
The largest city in the United States houses the tallest building in the western hemisphere of the Earth – the World Trade Center 1, whose height is 541 m (the building area is the same as the infamous twin towers, built in 1972). The world-famous Empire State Building, 443 m high, built in 1930, is also impressive. The 432 Park Avenue skyscraper closes the three giants.
