Sunset view across Plaza de Castilla with the Obelisco de la Caja, designed by Santiago Calatrava, and along the Paseo de la Castellana in NE direction. The twin towers of the Puerta de Europa were completed in 1996. They are 115 m high and inclined by 15 degrees. The Cuatro Torres Business Area is partly hidden behind the obelisk.
