Please post a pic of your favourite Iranian skyscraper, with a short explanation of why it is your favourite. It doesn't have to be the tallest or biggest (but of course it can be) - just your favourite.

Goldis Tower = WOW!!! So stunning and futuristic - I am literally gobsmacked!!! :eek2: It looks like something out of "Blade Runner" or "The Fifth Element"!

The Flower of the East Hotel is also fantastic! This looks like something from Dubai or the Gold Coast. (Actually, the Gold Coast would be very lucky to have this!)

Thanks for this - I'm very interested to see more Iranian 'scrapers now!

I really like that first one.

Does anyone know if construction of the Flower of the East hotel has begun?

The Flower of the East Hotel of course!

The Goldis Tower isn't that bad but those red lines are just ugly. They've ruined the whole building. It reminds me of Sh. Isa bin Salman tower in Dubai with its notorious blue glass and red lines going down the side. Is it supposed to represent Pepsi or something?
