KATHMANDU, Sept 20: The world’s tallest building, the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, celebrated Nepal's Constitution Day by illuminating in the colors of the country’s flag on Saturday evening.

On the occasion of the Constitution Day of Nepal, the national flag was displayed for a minute at the 163-story building that stands at 828 meters (2,716.5 feet).
