🌏 Destination Overview
Kuwait is a prosperous modern metropolis at the northern tip of the Persian Gulf. The iconic Kuwait Towers stand by the sea, their blue-green spheres a city symbol; the Grand Mosque is solemn and magnificent, while the Corniche and grand shopping malls radiate Gulf modernity and splendor, and in the souks spices mingle with tradition. Not far beyond the city lie golden deserts. As one of the gateways to the Gulf, Kuwait suits travelers who enjoy modern cities, desert flavor and Arab culture for a short stop.
