Menara Tun Mustapha yang terletak di Kota Kinabalu, Sabah merupakan antara 4 bangunan di dunia yang menggunakan teknologi "bangunan tergantung". Menara yang disiapkan pada tahun 1976 ini dinamakan bersempena Ketua Menteri Sabah ketiga, Tun Datu Mustapha Datu Harun. Menara setinggi 30 tingkat ini menempatkan beberapa jabatan kerajaan negeri serta menempatkan ibu pejabat Yayasan Sabah. Akan tetapi, tarikan utama menara ini adalah restoran berputar "Atmosphere" di tingkat 18 yang merupakan satu-satunya restoran berputar di pulau Borneo. Menara Tun Mustapha senang dilihat jika anda berkereta ke utara Kota Kinabalu.
