Something Missing?

Flame Towers (Azerbaijani: Alov qüllələri) is a group of three skyscrapers in Baku, Azerbaijan. The height of the tallest tower is 182 m (597 ft). The three flame-shaped towers are intended to symbolize the elements of fire and are a reference to Azerbaijan's nickname "The Land of Fire", historically rooted in a region where natural gas flares emit from the ground and Zoroastrian worshippers considered flames to be a symbol of the divine (notably at the Ateshgah of Baku and Yanar Dag).
