Guardians of the Urals, Residential twin towers in Yekaterinburg, Russia.

The Guardians of the Urals consists of two symmetrical skyscrapers rising against the skyline with glass and steel facades in shades of blue.

The construction of these towers marked a significant phase in Yekaterinburg's urban development during the early 21st century expansion period.

These towers reflect the architectural transformation of Yekaterinburg from an industrial center to a modern metropolis with international design standards.

The buildings contain residential apartments on the upper floors while the lower levels house commercial spaces and underground parking facilities.

The towers' name references their position as sentinels overlooking the geographical boundary between Europe and Asia in the Ural Mountains.
