Dubai The Burj Khalifa observation deck, which has been attracting a huge number of visitors, has been temporarily closed.
A representative of Emaar, the developer of the Burj Khalifa, said: "Due to unexpected high traffic, the observation deck experience at the Burj Khalifa, At the Top, has been temporarily closed for maintenance and upgrade.
"Technical issues with the power supply are being worked on by the main and sub-contractors and the public will be informed upon completion."
It is not yet known when At the Top, which is located on the 124th floor of the world's tallest building, will reopen to the public, the spokesperson said.
"Guests who hold valid tickets will be offered the option to re-book or receive an immediate refund. All ticket holders who wish to book again shall be given top priority," the spokesman added.
