See a water show

The Dubai Fountain is currently the largest fountain in the world. The latter is not part of the building, however, it is located just outside. It is even visible from the Mall of the Emirates. It is a spectacular choreography of water, but also embellished with sounds and lights.

Established on an area of about ten hectares, it is also called the artificial lake of Burj Khalifa. 6,600 bulbs and 25 colored projectors are installed on site to animate the show.
