Shopping at SouqSharq
Built in 1979, the Kuwait Towers are the most famous landmark in Kuwait City.
Kuwait Towers : One of Kuwait's most famous landmarks, the Kuwait Towers are situated on Arabian Gulf Street on a promontory to the east of the City centre in Dasman. The uppermost sphere of the largest tower (which is 187 metres high) has a revolving observation area and a restaurant with access by high speed lifts. The entrance fee is 350 fils per person, or free if lunch or dinner has been reserved. Cameras with zoom lens are forbidden. The middle tower contains 1 million gallons of water.
The Kuwait Towers which are pictured above and below.

The above building is sort of being built so it looks twisted. It will be really neat when finished.

The Water Clock. It is really neat and you can really tell the time on it. If you are ever in Kuwait you need to go to SouqSharq to see this clock.
