The Manial Palace and Museum is a former palace in Cairo, Egypt which has been converted into a museum. It reflects a true image of the life of princes and royal families.
It was built by Prince Mohammed Ali Tewfik between 1899 and 1929 and designed in a modern Islamic architecture style that was inspired by a combination of most old Islamic styles in design, decorations and materials [1]. It was given to the Egyptian state in 1955 [2].
