The Petronas Towers

Assalammualaikum..I want to share with you all about the famous building. The Petronas Towers is located in Kuala Lumpur, of Malaysia. The architect was Cesar pelli. He is very well known. He designs large, unusual buildings. The Pertonas Towers was built at 1998. It is a very tall skyscraper and commercial office tower with 452 metres tall. They were the world's tallest from 1997 (when they were topped out) until October 2003. The style of the building is modern and the towers were designed to symbolizes strength and grace using geometric principles typified in islamic architecture. The towers have 32000 windows. The building costs is US $ 1,2 billion. The construction system of towers made of glass, steel and concrete. Other components of the development include the Suria KLCC, Menara Maxis, Menara Esso, the 20 hectare KLCC park a 6000 capacity Surau, the District Cooling to provide air conditioning and infrustructure works within the vicinity. Beside that, tapering twin towers (connected by a sky bridge) share an Islamic-influenced geometrically polygonal plan. When standing in front of the building and looking towards the entrance, like seen on the picture obove on the left, tower 2 is the building on the left, and tower 1 is the building on the right. Instead a visit to the observatory of Menara Kuala Lumpur is much more interesting. That all. Thank you..
