The Capital Gate Tower in Abu Dhabi

The Capital Gate Tower in Abu Dhabi is the furthest leaning tower in the world. This tower is also known as the Leaning Tower of Abu Dhabi as it leans 18° westwards. This leaning of the tower is intentional. Designed by international architectural firm RMJM, the Capital Gate leans more than four times as much as that of the Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy.

According to Planet Apex:
It is a 35-story tower and is owned by Abu Dhabi National Exhibitions Company. The 160-meter high tower is one of the tallest buildings in the city of Abu Dhabi. The Capital Gate tower is the Feature Tower of the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Center and it creates a memorable identity to the exhibition center.

The Capital Gate Tower is an amazing iconic building located on the exhibition site in Abu Dhabi. It is one of the most extraordinary buildings in the world. It is one of the unique and exclusive buildings the UAE have. And it doesn't seem that the country will stop building such crazy buildings as it has plan to build another iconic tower in Dubai, The Crescent Moon Tower.

Here are some of the beautiful pictures of the furthest leaning tower in the world, The Capital Gate Tower.
