Located at the tip of the Persian Gulf, Kuwait in the local language means 'fortress built near water' and its geographical location has greatly contributed to its economic development due to being endowed with the world's fifth largest oil reserves. Enjoying a high human development index as well as being the eleventh richest country in the world, the city has certainly triumphed in light of the difficulties they faced in the past and emerged stronger than before. The city has a rich cultural heritage while you will also find more modern attractions here as well. Those heading to the city on a sightseeing tour have a whole host of sites of interest to choose from; The Liberation Tower, the National Museum, Entertainment City, Kuwait Science Club, Science and Natural History Museum, Sadu House and the Zoological Park. Another well known attraction is the striking Kuwait Towers. Completed and opened in 1977, the Kuwait Towers are located at the edge of Kuwait City with a splendid view of the Persian Gulf and serve as a symbol of the city's modern development. Composed of three towers, this structure serves multiple purposes. For instance, the main tower is composed of two spheres: the lower sphere acts as a water tank as well as an area that houses a restaurant, a lounge and even a reception hall while the upper sphere houses a café that spins on its axis periodically. The towers are unmistakeable even from a distance thanks to its design and sequined exterior. The Kuwait Towers prove to be a defining feature of the city skyline and ranks high on any tourist's list. Regardless which Kuwait resort you may be staying at, one of the best places to visit in the country is the spinning café which provides awe inspiring views of the city, Kuwait hotels and the Persian Gulf that are unparalleled and truly spectacular. For those searching for accommodation in north of the state, Al-Jahra Copthorne Hotel & Resort is an admirable option afforded to the discerning traveller for its location is secluded and yet a mere twenty minutes from the city centre.
