Riyadh Water Tower

Riyadh Water Tower (Arabic: برج مياه الرياض), locally known as Burj al-Khazzaan (Arabic: برج الخزان, lit. 'the reservoir tower') or simply al-Khazzaan (Arabic: الخزان, lit. 'the reservoir'), is a 61-meters tall conical-shaped cylindrical water tower and a prominent cultural landmark in the al-Futah neighborhood of Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Designed by Swedish architect Sune Lindström and modeled after the Svampen water tower in Örebro, Sweden, it was the tallest structure in the country at the time of its inauguration in 1971 and is today located within the precincts of al-Watan Park in the King Abdulaziz Historical Center. The famous Khazan Street in the city is named after the water tower.
