Record Description
Still rising in Jeddah as of 2026, the Jeddah Tower has already passed 430 metres and is on track to become the tallest building ever constructed once complete, surpassing Dubai's Burj Khalifa. Construction has continued in phases for over a decade after funding and pandemic-related delays slowed the project.
