This is where you find the iconic golden spire with the spiral staircase twisting around it, which you’ve probably seen in pictures of Copenhagen. If you’ve never heard of it before – then you’re in for a treat! If built, the Spiral Tower will be the world’s first climate-neutral skyscraper, lifting both tourists and locals to new heights.

Birding At The Forest Tower The minaret's unique spiral design is said by some to be derived from the architecture of the Mesopotamian ziggurats. [17] This design, completed under al-Mutawakkil, was unlike other minarets created in this time or anything else seen in the Islamic world because of its base's shape. The Mesopotamian Ziggurats had a square base while this minaret and others built like it in Iraq have a circular base with a twisted spiral leading up to the top. [5] Some consider the influence of the Pillar of Gor, which was also square not circular, built in the Sasanian Empire, more prominent. [18] This style of spiraling minaret was then repeated by the caliph Abu Dulaf for his mosque (also in Samarra). These minarets become a focal point of the skyline in any city and are a call to attention and prayer.
