About One of the most distinct architectural expressions in the Middle East or anywhere else in the world, the Kuwait Towers are a cultural icon and a symbol of how geographically small nations can achieve great things. While there are three spheres and three towers, not all of them are for storage. The first tower is 140 meters tall and supports a water-holding sphere. The second tower is 180 meters tall. It also carries a restaurant and a cafeteria. The third tower has no spheres at all. It is used for lighting. The towers hold 4,500 cubic meters of water which then flows into the homes and businesses of Kuwait city. The design is excellent, being both very modern and very Arabic at the same time.

Good lighting. Love the shape


Sony Kusumo   {K:7160} 5/11/2005
Fantastic tower Kamran. Fantastic capture too! The lighting is excellent.
Just wonder, would it be nice to try to capture the tower from below? 'Cos I think it the base is quite wide....
But it will definitely the place I would visit when I went to Kuwait...

Reza Fakhrai   {K:3059} 5/14/2005
This is a great addition to your portfolio, Kamran. I love these structures because they do possess so many old Arabic architectural qualities while looking modern as well. Excellent job, though it is just a tiny blurry, but not enough to ruin it for me.
