A skyscraper with a spectacularly curved shape, however, the slope is not visible from all angles. There are several stunning buildings in Abu Dhabi - the symbols of the city, which stand out brightly from all the others, they can not be confused with anything and it is easy to keep a landmark in the city by them. Among them, of course, Capital Gate. Impressive! 160 meters high and the largest slope in the world - 18 degrees. The angle of inclination is greater than that of the Leaning Tower of Pisa. Located near the Sheikh Zayed White and Gold Mosque. Very pretty in the evening light. The facade is made of reinforcing mesh, on which glass panels are fixed in the form of rhombuses. The building, as usual, has numerous offices, shops, an exhibition gallery and, of course, a luxury hotel. You can freely take the elevator to the 18th floor, where there is a cafe and a small outdoor terrace, but only on one side, so the view of the city is not circular, but also not bad.
