The Capital Gate is a skyscraper in Abu Dhabi, capital of the United Arab Emirates. It was designed with a striking lean which features an 18-degree incline to the west, nearly five times that of the Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy. It is 160 meters (520 feet) high, with 35 stories, making it one of the tallest buildings in the city. In June 2010, the Guinness Book of World Records certified the Capital Gate as the "world’s furthest leaning man-made tower."
