برج الزوراء, Observation tower in Al-Harithiya district, Baghdad, Iraq
The Zora Tower stands 40 meters tall with a rotating circular restaurant at its summit, featuring a bulbous dome architectural design.
Iraqi architect Adnan Zaki Amin designed and completed the construction of this tower in 1975, marking a period of modern architectural development in Iraq.
The tower represents Iraqi architectural innovation as the first tower in Iraq completely designed by a local engineer, reflecting national engineering capabilities.
Located in Zawraa Park, visitors can access the tower through the central area of Baghdad, with multiple restaurants and shops around its base.
The tower's construction stopped at half its intended height due to security concerns regarding its proximity to the Republican Palace and airport.
