Abu Dhabi Iconic Landmarks #4

In AD today for meetings at ADNEC.

Capital Gate

Drive down Khaleej Al Arabi Street and you will see a modern day challenger to the Leaning Tower of Pisa.

Capital Gate, designed by RMJM for Abu Dhabi National Exhibitions Company, has been certified as the ‘World’s Furthest Leaning Man Made Tower,’ by the Guinness World Records.

It leans 18 degrees westwards - more than four times that of Pisa’s famous Leaning Tower. The 160 metre (524.9 ft), 35 storey tower is a postcard image of Abu Dhabi and makes a great holiday snap.

Hyatt Capital Gate Abu Dhabi, a premium 5-star business hotel, occupies the top half of the tower.

A year ago Max & I were on the roof.
