Kuwait Towers



These are Kuwait's national symbol, the Kuwait Towers. The smallest is used for illumination and electricity generation. The middle tower in height stores one million gallons of water in its sphere. The lower sphere on the tallest tower is also used for water storage, while the upper one features an observation dome, restaurant, gift shop, and a small exhibit on the destruction of the towers' interiors during the Iraqi occupation.
