The World's Tallest Building: Reaching for the Stars! 🏗️
You Imagine a building so much tall to the extent it looks like it's touching the clouds! The Burj Khalifa in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, is currently known as the world's tallest building. It's Standing at an amazing height of about "828 meters (2,717 feet)," it's seems to me like stacking about 163 elephants on top of each other! The building 🏢 mentioned has 163 floors and according to researched shows that it took 6 years to build it.
- It's really so tall that if you're at the high top, you can definitely watch the sunset 🌇 twice – "once from the very top and also again when you come down to the ground!" The building is made shaped to like a needle pointing to the sky, much inspired by a desert flower called the "Spider Lily".
Sweet Success: The Sugar King Country 🍯
Would you also believe that Brazil is known as the world's largest producer of sugarcane?
In shock 😲 but Yes, it's 💯% true! Brazil do produces so much sugarcane that in the year 2023, they made all about 40% of all the world's sugarcane. That's more like filling up 7,200 Olympic-sized swimming pools with the sugar! The Brazilian farmers have all been growing sugarcane for over 500 years now. Their warm climate and their rich soil makes it so perfect for growing these tall, sweet stalks. From this very sugarcane, they make out sugar for our cookies and the cakes, and even the clean fuel for cars called the ethanol. "How cool is that! Steemians"
Sushi: Japan's Delicious Gift to the World 🍣
When we do think of sushi, we focus immediately to thinking 🤔 of Japan! This amazing kind of dish has a history going back more than 1,300 years.
- Originally, the sushi wasn't exactly just like what we eat today - it all started as a way to help preserve fish in rice that had already been fermented. Then the modern sushi we all love today was invented in during the 1800s in Tokyo (then called Edo) as a very quick street food! The Japanese sushi chefs train for many years just to become masters at their own craft. They did learn everything from how to perfectly cook the rice to how to slice fish with good precision.
Did you all know that in Japan, it's much polite to eat sushi in one bite? And then the green paste served with it called the wasabi which is actually meant to kill the bacteria and make the fish taste even more better!
