The Twisted Tower of Cayan is one of the main attractions of Dubai

United Arab Emirates is struck by its unique architecture, and fantastic skyscrapers demonstrate the unique capabilities of modern technology. It is believed that this rapidly developing country holds the first place in the world for the height and beauty of multi-storey buildings.

For the erection of giant structures, rare types of concrete are used and new technologies for its laying are invented.

Twisted Skyscraper

In 2013, the UAE appeared the highest twisted to 90 degrees building. The Tower of Cayan in Dubai, located in a prestigious area, is known and called the Tower of Infinity. Infinity Tower in height in 307 meters was designed by American architects.

From the spacious windows of the skyscraper, in which each floor turns by 1.2 degrees, thus forming a giant spiral, a beautiful panoramic view of the beautiful bay opens.

Tower with a developed infrastructure

The 75-story Cayan Tower, where various studios, equipped gyms with swimming pools, luxury spa salons, tennis courts, conference halls, provoked a huge interest of investors in the construction of skyscrapers. Safe living conditions and the developed financial sphere of Dubai increase the demand for local residential real estate.

The Tower of Cayan (Dubai) has nearly five hundred furnished apartments and 75 penthouses, 80 percent of which have already been sold by the time the large-scale construction is completed.

Competition for the most original project

The construction of the skyscraper began in 2006. The company that owned the coastal area, dreamed of extracting as much profit as possible. She announced a competition for the most original design of the future building. Unusual projects of architects from all over the world were considered, but as a result, a "dancing" skyscraper won.

The total budget of a rotating building, protected by moving screens from direct sunlight, amounted to $ 200 to $ 275 million. Surprisingly, all communication systems pass exactly vertically, so the unusual shape of the building does not affect their work.

Problems in construction

A year later, the flooded foundation was flooded with water from the bay, on the shore of which the construction was conducted. Literally in four minutes a huge pit was filled with water, and all workers were urgently evacuated. Then the financial crisis followed, and only in July 2008 the skyscraper erection continued.

Rename a skyscraper

In June 2013, the Cayenne Tower was opened, equipped with underground floors, on which there is a multi-level parking for cars. The colorful show was accompanied by a salute and entertainment program.

Then the owner of the beating of all the records of the structure announced the renaming of the Tower of Infinity in the Tower of Cayan. His argument, he argued that the new name is unique and nowhere else is found.

The conquest of the tower by a "spider-man"

The tower of Cayan with a bizarre architecture in 2015 was conquered by the famous "spider-man" Alain Robert, who crossed the path of 75 floors in seventy minutes. The French extreme did not use insurance, and his only help was stickers on his fingertips.

The main obstacle was the unique construction of the building, interfering with the ascent, and small openings in the protective elements of the structure were too narrow for Robert's foot. However, conquered over 60 skyscrapers, the Frenchman overcame all difficulties. Once again in the Guinness Book of Records, the climber admitted that he had been preparing for this trick for two years.

The Cayan Tower, striving for infinity, has received many awards and has become one of the main attractions of Dubai, where tourists come to admire the unusual architectural aesthetics.
