They visited Levels 124 and 125 of the iconic attraction and were given a detailed insight into the construction and design of the worlds tallest building.

The tour was arranged by Emaar Community Management (ECM) as a thank you gesture for their valuable contribution to the community. Ahmad Al Falasi, Executive Director Group Operations, Emaar Properties PJSC, presented a memento to Naseem Durrani, one of the founding members of the Golden Age Group. Jeevan J. D Mello, Senior Director of ECM welcomed the members.
