Nakheel Tower

Two buildings on the upper reaches of King Fahd Road, with a closer view of the second one to follow. Nakheel Tower, at 200 meters high, is Riyadh's fifth tallest skyscraper.

On our way to the hospital last night, we saw some amazing building off in the distance but couldn’t figure out what it was (maybe the “twisting” tower, but not really sure). Even if it was under construction, it was entirely lit up and looked spectacular. I can see we need to start braving the horrendous traffic in the evenings because a lot of things are lit up at night and are just begging to be photographed.

That capsule caught my eye too and I wondered what it is. It looks like an oversized Christmas ornament! V
