Dominating Kuwait with its 372 meters, Liberation tower is the fifth tallest communication tower in the world.
Construction started in 1987, stopped for a short while during the Iraqi invasion of 1990, and resumed 1993.
Covering an area of 21.000 square meters, it contains a hall to serve public 24 hours a day,
the main building holding administrative and technical offices, as well as the tower itself.
You can notice the two vertical cavities in the tower body which contain two elevators,

The tower also holds an eighteen meter underground foundation with three basements.
