The Liberation Tower

It represents Kuwaiti liberation, the sure sign of the country’s resurgence. It is one of tallest telecommunication towers in the world. The tower is 372 meters in height, and is 40 meters taller than the Eiffel Tower. It is the second tallest structure in Kuwait. It was meant to be called THE KUWAIT TELECOMMUNICATION TOWER.

The Kuwait Towers
These are the most famous landmarks of Kuwait. The Kuwait Towers are situated on the Arabian Gulf Street in Dasman, promontory to east of City Center. The topmost sphere of the largest tower (187 meters in height), has a revolving observation area and a restaurant with access to high speed lifts. The middle tower comprises one million gallons of water.

The National Museum. Location in close proximity to the National Assemble, comprises four buildings and a planetarium. Though, stripped and burnt by the Iraqi invaders, it houses the Al Sabah collection of Islamic Art, the most comprehensive collections in the world. There's also a planetarium at the same location as the museum which will be a trip with the kids. A few feet away there is a house which faces the Gulf street. It is a beautiful refurbished old Kuwaiti house and I must say it's amazing. We highly recommended the Kuwait National Museum, it was a real great place to visit if you're interested in the past.

This beautiful island has only soldiers as its permanent residents, as it was once left devastated by the Gulf War. However, the visitors get to view the ruins from settlements of the Bronze Age Dilmuns and Hellenistic Greeks, who left many treasures from which, their past could be reconstructed.

    First off, something which makes this trip a new and fun experience is the space theater. The space theater is basically like a normal movie theater, but what makes this theater unique from the others is it makes you feel like you're really there, sort of like virtual reality. Secondly, another item that makes this trip enjoyable is the shell finding, where you could uncover unique fossils and stones. I personally thought this was cool since I found many unseen fossils and gems in the game. Thirdly, the most memorable and brilliant place out of the whole museum is the car exhibit. The car exhibit consists of cars from the late '80s to the late '90s, which…

    There's a lot to see within all these three locations, however, it's recommended visitors spend a day or two visiting each one as the exhibits really have to be seen to be appreciated. It's so easy to just get lost in these great buildings. The Victoria and Albert museum itself covers around seven miles of gallery space in total after renovations in previous years. There are six floors to discover too, each with it's own treasures. Visitors can enjoy a coffee and sweet treats available at the Victoria and Albert…

    To achieve educational and social role, the theming method implemented in the museum stand for an additional layer in the site to generate educational, effective and emotional visiting experience (Oren and Shani, 2012). This implementation of theming is expressed successfully through the rebuilding of new visitor’s center (Mevoah) in the museum (figure 3), which is an arcaded concrete pavilion roofed by trellises and skylight, and cast ever-changing shadow patterns. Besides the Mevoah, a new history museum replaced the previous museum constructed in 1953 (Figure 4), and galleries for Holocaust art, a Hall of Names, a synagogue; a visual and learning canter and an exhibitions pavilion are included in the new design (Safdie Architects, 2011). A network of sky lit underground galleries lines both sides of the…

    This exhibit is something I truly loved because when I was a kid I used to collect rocks that were from mining and love to go this exhibit.

It is so beautiful. There are also depictions and carvings of the layers along steep banks of the James River, and gems in an underground mine. If your child is a rock lover, it is definitely the place to take them…

    Rome has lead many doors open for us because of their legacies and lessons they have left behind for us. Its 40 mile aqueducts, and its 50,000 miles of road has left us to new ideas that we use today because of the romans. We think a lot like the romans, such as their religions they have started that we to continued, or branch off of. Without modern day technology we have, they had to form their own way of technology, like building a bridge in 10 days, a feat we couldn’t even do today. There are much more invision/ways the roman did, but this will only cover the ones that are most important to us today.…
