A few years back I went to the observation deck of the Burj Kalifa in Dubai. I wasn't at all impressed...for several reasons. The biggest reason is that apart from a number of butt ugly skyscrapers along that boulevard (can't recall the name) all you see is desert.

By far the best one I've visited was the original World Trade Center...the outdoors deck (on the roof),not the enclosed one just below.
