Burj Dubai will exceed 800 meters

If you told someone during two decades ago about living in a building with 1 km height, you might be scolded but nowadays, having a building taller than 1km height is going to become a norm.

Do you know what is the tallest building in the world right now? It is the Burj Dubai which is still under construction. Even though it is not yet completed, Burj Dubai already surpassed the record set by Taipei 101. It is estimated that Burj Dubai will exceed 800 meters but the exact height is being kept secret.

While Burj Dubai is still under construction, another crazy project has been proposed in Dubai, which is given a similar name, Al-burj Dubai. Although the building design may not looked as attractive as Burj Dubai, however it will be much taller than Burj Dubai, with height exceeding 1050 meters. The final height is still a secret. There is rumor saying that the building will be as tall as 1.6km. Crazy right?

Now the climax begin. Those amazing fact you have read above is just a nut or crap. Why? Because Japan is proposing to build another building, so called X-seed 4000 WITH THE HEIGHT Of ABOUT 4km.


Basement of the X-seed 4000 is a large integrated park.

It is about as tall as Mount Kinabalu in Sabah. It is estimated to be able to accommodate up to 1 millions people. Next time if you want to hike the Mount Kinabalu but your body is not fit enough, you can go to the X-seed 4000 instead of Mount Kinabalu since both of them have almost the same height.
