Burj Khalifa held the title of the world's tallest tower since its inauguration in 2009. At 828 meters, this building is a symbol of modernity and luxury. However, this record is about to be broken.
Saudi Arabia has launched an ambitious project that will take architecture to new heights: the Jeddah Tower, a skyscraper that will exceed 1,000 meters in height.
One thousand meters high
The Jeddah Tower, whose project will be led by the Saudi Binladin Group (SBG), will become the tallest skyscraper in the world, marking a new milestone in the race to reach the sky.

This building will not only challenge the limits of engineering, but will also strengthen Saudi Arabia's position as the new skyscraper capital, surpassing Dubai in the process.
Although it may seem a bit exaggerated, Saudi ambition doesn't stop there. It's the Rise Tower, a skyscraper that promises to reach 2,000 meters, taking the race to the skies to an even more impressive level.
However, as these gigantic constructions rise in the desert, questions arise about their sustainability and real usefulness in a world increasingly focused on responsible urban growth.
Features of the next tallest building in the world
- Over 1,000 meters high.
- Futuristic design and cutting-edge technology.
- Approximately 167 floors.
- Mixed uses: residential, commercial and hotel.
- It will be equipped with high-speed elevators.
- Strategic location in the city of Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
- With an estimated construction cost in the billions of dollars.
