What is the objective of man? Colonize all possible areas, on land, at sea, beyond our planet? To perpetuate the species over the millennia? No ... the human being has only one purpose: to want to touch the sky with a finger! And do not just have to realize the monumental buildings. The competition was launched to Babel and continues today throughout the world, especially where they do not know how to use their money and play to stack bricks.
Here are the 10 tallest towers in the World ... where you can not even finish a Sudoku puzzle in the elevator, as you reach the top floor.
1. Burj Khalifa (2009 - Dubai, United Arab Emirates): 829 meters, 162 floors
built an impressive tower with older methods, ie employing migrant workers paid a handful of figs, in a country that did not yet know, until recently, the concettodi "unions." The project has led to unrest and riots, a construction "bibbliche"!
2. Tokyo Skytree (2011 - Tokyo, Japan): 634m
The Japanese are not kidding! The project was funded primarily by the television channel NHK (with the aim of broadcasting). The building has suffered a delay of two months from the date originally planned, because of the problems related to the earthquake and tsunami of 2011. To achieve the Tokyo Skytree worked 580 000 workers, with a total cost of 65 billion yen (630 million euro). With this structure, the Japanese should also be able to see without problems Rai Parliament.
3. Abraj Al Bait Towers (2011 - Mecca, Saudi Arabia): 601m
The complex has its highest tower, a clock six times bigger than Big Ben and allows to read the time up to 17 km away ( at night). The faithful gathered in Mecca have no excuse to skip a prayer.
4. Canton Tower (2010 - Guangzhou, China): 600m
Another tower broadcasting, but with the greatest charm: a hyperboloid structure composed of tubes pulled twist. All with beautiful lights. There were no facts not miss anything!
5. CN Tower (1976 - Toronto, Canada): 553m
The building was designed 35 years ago to show the strength of industrial Canada. Today it is one of the most important symbols of the country and a tourist attraction. La Tour Eiffel north america we say!
6. One World Trade Center (2013 - New York, United States): 541m
This is the new tallest building in the Western world, rests on the ruins of the World Trade Center was destroyed on September 11, 2001. Well 1776 feet in height, as the year of the independence of the United States. But once translated "feet" in "meters", this data no longer has any meaning for Americans.
7. Ostankino Tower (1967 - Moscow, Russia): 540m
Built during the great years of the USSR, this tower used by television, has aged badly, as well as communism. In 2000, in fact, it is a fire occurred due to obsolescence of electronic equipment. Two weeks after the tragedy of the submarine Kursk . Really a bad month of August for Russia.
8. Willis Tower (1973 - Chicago, USA): 527m
No, this is not a tower in honor of Bruce Willis in "Die Hard", but a reference to the insurer Willis Group Holdings, a tenant of the building. We understand your disappointment:
9. Taipei 101 (the 2004th - Taipei, Taiwan): 509m
Described as "a majestic turquoise bamboo", the building combines business with pleasure, and has a seismic system. This huge pagoda remains in history as the first building of over 500 meters.
10. Shanghai World Financial Center (2008 - Shanghai, China): 494m
"We need a tower that evokes the character of modern and cosmopolitan Shanghai ... without sacrificing references to the 5000 years of Chinese history." "What? A giant bottle opener? Ok ... why not! "
I just want to inform you that by the year 2015 are coming full six skyscrapers over 500 meters high. Three in China and two in South Korea. This ranking will soon need updating high-level:
