At one end of the 10 km long corniche in Kuwait City, you’ll find the impeccable looking Kuwait Towers. They look so…clean, for the lack of better words 🙂 And so glammed up with its blue “sequins”. Love it! Very forward-looking considering it was opened back in 1979. Even though the practical purpose of these structures are to store water, if you go upstairs, which I didn’t, you’ll find an observation deck, a restaurant, a cafe, and even a ballroom – did not see that one coming – cool!
Kuwait Towers
A ballroom! Who would have believed it! I have a fear of heights but a weird fascination with going to the top of tall structures. I’ll definitely have to add this to my list!
Exactly my reaction as well 🙂 I used to make it to the top, nowadays I don’t – done too many I guess 🙂
I never thought about visiting Kuwait before but it looks so cool! #wanderfulwednesday
I liked it a lot! Never considered it either, until a friend moved there for work. Lucky me 🙂
Wow! Hard to believe they are from 1979… they look futuristic!
I know! Close up you can see that they have been around for a while 😉
How kooky! I’ll admit I know nothing about Kuwait
Kooky in a good way? 🙂 Didn’t know much either. Very different from what I imagined 🙂
I’ve been there in March and, overall, Kuwait was a very pleasant country! The area surrounding these towers is great!
Yes, I was very surprised. Weird, because I didn’t have any expectations 🙂 Didn’t explore the surrounding area, as we just did a quick stop at the towers.
