This country is building world’s tallest tower, much taller than Dubai’s Burj Khalifa, not US, UAE, Qatar, China, India, it is…

Saudi Arabia has officially restarted the construction of the Jeddah Tower, a project aimed at being the highest building in the world. The Jeddah Tower, which was first initiated in 2013, stopped for several years due to political and financial issues. However, construction is now on its way again and attracts attention worldwide.

Currently, the longest structure in the world is Burj Khalifa in Dubai, the United Arab Emirates, standing at 828 meters. However, Saudi Arabia’s Jeddah tower is preparing to break this record because it claims that the new skyscraper will exceed 1,000 meters. The estimated cost of the project is 2.6 billion dollars.

The Jeddah tower, designed by the famous architect Adrian Smith, will stand out not only because of its height, but also for mixed use design. The building will include luxury houses, Four Seasons Hotel, Office Areas and Shopping Stores. When completed, it will redefine the Saudi silhouette and increase tourism and work in the region.

The revival of the project is also seen as a sign that Saudi Arabia has recovered the trust of investor because it faces long -term difficulties, especially due to the decreasing oil reserves of the country. The tower is part of the plan to diversify its economy within the scope of the vision of the kingdom.

Meanwhile, in another development emphasizing the increasing ties between India and Saudi Arabia, JP Nadda, Minister of Unity Health and Chemicals and Fertilizers, visited the country for a two -day official trip. During his visit, the Saudi Industry and Mineral Resources Minister Bandar bin Ibrahim al Khorayef met.
