Kuwait' s most iconic building by far, this dramatic trio of waterfront towers exudes a distinctly space-age air. A series of glass spheres impaled on spears of reinforced concrete, there's something very Jetsons about the place.
On the inside things are less retro-futuristic, the tallest of the three contains a restaurant and a cafeteria alongside a revolving observation deck. The remaining sphere has a more practical use, acting as a water reservoir which supplies the businesses and residences of the city below. The other sphere-less spike, the minor tower, helps to illuminate its taller siblings.
The view is indeed quite stunning, but it's as a symbol of how even the smallest nations can achieve great things, that they leave the greatest impression.

Reviews of Kuwait Towers
It is a cool place to say you went but there really isn't and thing special about it. The view is great and does make for some good photos. You could see everything in about a half hour.
