The tower is located on King Abdulaziz Road in the Burj district and is accessible to visitors during specific hours. Parking facilities are available on-site, making it straightforward to reach and explore the building.
The restaurant inside the tower rotates slowly, allowing diners to experience a complete view of the city while eating. The structure becomes particularly striking when visited during evening hours when the lighting accentuates its form.
