Scenic, Museum, Monuments, Beaches

Kuwait City, the capital of the Emirate of Kuwait, has seen the extremes of both wealth and war in recent years. Despite its tartan history, however, it is one of the most vivacious, attractive cities in an otherwise conservative Middle Eastern region. With its landmark triple towers looming over a clean and accessible cornice; a first-class aquarium and some brilliant museums; dramatic pieces of marine and land architecture; malls and souks to please the most discriminating or diverse of shoppers; and a selection of restaurants to arouse the appetite of the fussiest gourmands, Kuwait City is a classy and interesting destination in its own right.
