Capital Gate

The Capital Gate building is also called the "Leaning Tower" and with good reason.

The Guinness Book of Records claims that this skyscraper is the building with the largest slope in the world. The slope of the building is 18 degrees. For comparison, the Leaning Tower of Pisa is tilted 4 degrees.

In addition, it is one of the tallest buildings in Abu Dhabi. Its height is 160 m. The tallest building in UAE is located in the center of Dubai - the Burj Khalifa tower, whose height is 828 meters.

The construction of the Capital Gate building uses the most modern technologies that redirect the force of wind and seismic activity and allow the skyscraper to be sustainable.

The building is lined with glass plates, which are made in the shape of a diamond. Not only are they beautiful, but they are also designed to require a minimum amount of artificial lighting.

The building houses the Andaz Capital Gate by Hyatt hotel, meaning you can actually stay inside this piece of architectural art.
