With Google releasing new 3D imagery almost every week, urban sightseeing in Google Earth is getting better and better.

Last month we mentioned the opening of the Burj Khalifa, so we thought it was probably time to look at more of the world’s tallest buildings.

Burj Khalifa, formerly known as Burj Dubai prior to its inauguration, is a skyscraper in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, and the tallest man-made structure ever built, at 828 m. Construction began on 21 September 2004, with the exterior of the structure completed on 1 October 2009. The building officially opened on 4 January 2010.
