The tallest structure in the world is nearly three times the height of the Eiffel Tower in Paris and the Taj Mahal. We are talking about the one and only Burj Khalifa in Dubai. Google made a list of major street-view destinations available to its customers on Tuesday. The Burj Khalifa took the top spot as the most breathtaking structure in the world.
Google Marked The 15th Anniversary Of This Campaign
It sees over 1.5 overnight visitors a year at over 828 meters in the sky. The world’s tallest skyscraper Burj Khalifa is a very popular tourist attraction. The tech giant marked the 15th anniversary of the start of its massive and highly contentious project. It was to photograph streets in precise detail all around the world. Google Street View’s panoramic photos have become part of millions of people’s everyday lives.
Although it has been the subject of numerous legal disputes, it howls of misery from privacy advocates in its early years. The US tech giant is commemorating the occasion by introducing a raft of new tools. It includes an updated version of the “time travel” tool. This allows users to view photographs taken by Google’s cameras in the past.
