The Grand Mosque of Kuwait is the nation's largest place of worship, a monumental structure capable of accommodating over 10,000 worshippers. Its striking design incorporates materials from around the world, including French stained glass, Italian marble and a central gold-plated dome. The mosque offers guided tours that provide insight into both its extravagant architecture, featuring the highest minaret in Kuwait, and Islamic culture. Visitors should note that appropriate attire, including provided abayas and headscarves for women, is required.

Mount Dajti looms majestically over Tirana, offering a beautiful escape into nature with its national park, dense forests and panoramic views. You can reach the top either by taking the Dajti Ekspres cable car — the longest in the Balkans — or enjoy a scenic drive. Once at the summit, you'll find several restaurants where you can savour a meal while enjoying the serene landscape. The sense of standing above the city, with expansive views stretching in every direction, gives you a feeling of being on top of the world. Dajti Mountain National Park also offers an adventure park for kids and adults, a rotating bar, minigolf, hiking and mountain biking trails, as well as many romantic spots for picnicking.

The largest theme park in the area, Busch Gardens’ hallmarks are its roller coasters and nearly 3,000 live animals, incorporated into various exhibits and shows. SheiKra will give you all the thrills you can handle with a 200-foot drop, 90 degrees straight down, or for the traditionalists there is Gwazi, a wooden roller coaster with speeds exceeding 100 miles per hour. Jungala is an attraction where guests can get face-to-face with orangutans or play tug-of-war with tigers.

The Liberation Tower is a defining feature of the Kuwait City skyline and a powerful symbol of the nation's resurgence, completed in 1993 after the Gulf War. Standing at 372 metres, it is the country's second-tallest structure. Its distinctive design features a prominent 'saucer' near the summit. The tower primarily functions as a telecommunications hub and government office complex, and has not been accessible to the public for tours in recent years. Nonetheless, its striking silhouette remains an iconic landmark, best appreciated from the surrounding city.
