This is a sight I see on the way to work every day that I don't think much of anymore but others would I guess. It's like driving past the front doors of the white house in the US. If you do it everyday, you don't think about it, but if you're a tourist, you'll want to stop and look. What you're seeing here is a sniper tower. These walls they guard are the main walls surrounding Muommar Qadaffi's palace here in Tripoli. Basically, just dont try to climb inside and they agree not to riddle you with AK-47s.
