Exploring Dubai from the Rooftops of Buildings

by twistedsifter

 

If you’re interested in urban exploration, rooftopping, cityscapes and/or industrial architecture, the Sifter highly recommends the LiveJournal blog of Vadim Makhorov. Vadim is a talented photographer with a knack for finding vantage points of cities that most people will never experience.

That is because him and his friends will ascend tall buildings and structures (sometimes illegally) to get unique views of cities. The Sifter has already featured Vadim’s incredible work before. Him and his friends also gained quite a bit of notoriety earlier this year after illegally scaling one of the pyramids in Giza, Egypt.

Back in March, Vadim took a trip to Dubai with some friends. In an epic 60-photo blog post, Vadim shared his incredible perspective of Dubai with the world. I’ve posted a few of my personal favourites below, but be sure to head to the original post to see all of them.
