The palace was the winter residence of King Farouk, and later a harbor for 19th century explorers fascinated with Egyptian culture. From the very imposing staircase, Howard Carter announced he had discovered the immaculately preserved tomb of Tutankhamun.
With strong Victorian influences, the palace was built using master craftsmen. French details, like the grand chandelier and curtains made of sumptuous textiles, were added to achieve a distinctive level of elegance and refinement.
