Due to an unplanned stopover flight I spend 2 days in Kuwait City and visited the Mosque. The Mosquee is huge and marvelous but I'm actually writing not a review of the Mosque but only thank the Mosque Staff for it's great welcome and the great hospitality. They served us fresh drinks and food and guided through the Mosque's areas explaining and teaching us about Mosque history. Thank you again and greetings from Italy.

8. Kuwait Towers
Overall Ratings
4.0 based on 1,373 reviews
Kuwait Towers have stood as the undisputed national symbol and one of the most recognizable landmarks in Kuwait. Today, the Towers have become an integral element of the Kuwait City skyline, occupying a focal position on the Sea Front along the Arabian Gulf Road. Known to residents fondly as “Al Abraj” (simply the Towers), they are a must-visit destination for residents and tourists. The Towers main features include two restaurants, the viewing sphere perched at 123 meters above sea level and Dasman private hall.
Reviewed By Prime121202 - Lisbon, Portugal
Landmark of Kuwait and a must see anyhow if you are in the country on business, leisure or stay locally. The view from 120 meters above sea level is awesome with a revolving platform that takes a full 360 view of Kuwait City and the Arabian Gulf. There is a Horizon Restaurant that serves a daily lunch or dinner buffet at KWD 14/- per person and another option of KWD 18/- per person which is all inclusive of drinks. So have nice romantic or business meal at breathtaking heights. Entrance fees to the viewing sphere is KWD 3/- net per person. If you want to know the history of the towers or explore more in depth during the invasion of Iraq, then I suggest to have a professional tour guide from a local reputed company like Orient DMC - KUWAIT that I used during a visit of my friends and families.

Although this isn’t the largest mall, it is still pretty big, and it's less crowded and more relaxing than the Avenues Mall. It combines everything one can wish for! Excellent shopping from luxury goods to every day consumables, choice of restaurants and cafes as well as entertainment. Highly recommended!
