Capital Gate, Abu Dhabi Overview

Capital Gates is Abu Dhabi’s answer to the Leaning tower of Pisa of Europe, except that it leans four times more. It is located in the centre of Abu Dhabi and well connected with most important buildings of the city. The Capital Gate is flanked by Al Khaleej Al Arabi street on one side. Nothing short of an architectural marvel, this structure is a must see for all tourists.

Every aspect of this amazing structure is unique and truly a symbol of Abu Dhabi’s economic and technological prowess. Capital Gate rises like the Phoenix amidst the horizon and is not only a visually appealing monument but a hardcore functional building with offices, a large exhibition centre and a hotel as well. It amalgamates commerce, tourism and hospitality all under one roof.

Capital Gate holds the world record for being the building that leans farthest in the world, as recognised by Guiness Book in 2010. This record was bestowed upon the completion of the exterior works. It is also home to one of a kind ‘sky spa’ in Abu Dhabi which is located on the nineteenth floor offering stuning view of the city's skyline.
