Burj Khalifa And Dubai Burj ul arab
Since its completion in January 2010, the tallest building in the world has been the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. However, the building called Kingdom Tower, proposed in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, is expected to be built from 2012 to 2018 and would move Burj Khalifa to the second place spot. Kingdom Tower is expected to be the world's first building that is taller than a kilometer (1000 meters or 3281 feet).
Thus, this list is extremely dynamic and by 2017, the world's current second tallest building, Taipei 101, is expected to be around the 20th tallest building in the world due to numerous tall buildings being constructed in China, South Korea, and Saudi Arabia.
Here is the current official list (as of January 2012) of the eighteen tallest buildings in the world, as recorded by the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat, based in Chicago.
1. World's Tallest Building: Burj Khalifa in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Completed in January 2010 with 160 stories which reach 2,716 feet (828 meters) high!
