Egyptian Consulate Building

TIME : 2016/2/19 2:51:38

The Egyptian consulate building is thought by some critics to be the work of Italian architect Raimondo D’Aronco. This gorgeous art nouveau minipalace was built for Emine Hanım, mother of the last khedive of Egypt, Abbas Hilmi II. It’s the white building with a mansard roof and an ornate wrought-iron fence.
