According to Google, not only is this their first-ever collection of images from the Arab World, “This is the first time we’ve captured a skyscraper on Street View.”

The images were collected over a three-day stretch using the Google Street View Trekker and Trolley, taking 360-degree panoramic photos inside and outside of the building.

Users can see views of Dubai from the 124th floor, visit the highest occupied floor in the world from the 163rd floor and check-out the highest swimming pool in the world located on the 76th floor of the Burj Khalifa.
