Another shot in Almontazah Beach - Alexandria.
This shot show one Palace it's name AL HARAMLEK.
and here is the story of this Palace:
يرجع التفكير في أنشاء هذا القصر إلى الملك أحمد فؤاد الذي أمر كبير مهندسيه الأيطالي فيروتشي عام 1925 بأنشاء هذا القصر في حدائق المنتزة و التي كانت المقر الملكي للعائلة المالكة لقضاء فصل الصيف. و يتميز هذا القصر بالجمع بين الطرز الفنية المختلفة و أبرازها على الأطلاق الطراز البيزنطي بالأضافة إلى الطرازيين القوطي و الكلاسيكي فضلا عن الطراز الأسلامي . و عن التسمية فان كلمة "حرملك" في الأصل كلمة تركية ظهرت كمصطلح في العمارة الأسلامية و تعني مكان الحريم حيث كان قديما محرما ان يجتمع الرجال بالنساء معا لذلك كان يتم تخصيص جزء من المنزل لتجمع الحريم و ذلك حفاظا على حرمتهم و خصوصيتهم . يحتوي القصر على العديد من التحف و القطع الفنية الفرنسية الطراز كما يتميز بزخارفه التي صنعت على طراز الباروك و الركوكو و الذي يتكون من زخارف هندسية و نباتية متشابكة و هذا الطراز طراز اروبي . و يتكون القصر من الداخل من قاعة وسطى اي فناء داخلي مغطى بأرتفاع المبنى و تحيط به الأجنحة و الغرف ،حيث يتكون من ثلاث أدوار:- الطابق الأرضي و يحتوي على عدة غرف و قاعات أهمها مكتب الملك و غرفة الطعام و غرفة البلياردو. الطابق الأوسط حيث حجرات الوصيفات و الشمشرجية وهي طبقة تخدم الأميرات و الملك . و أخيرا الطابق العلوي و الذي يحوي جناحي الملك و الملكة يربطهما شرفة عريضة . و كذلك توجد بعض الغرف الخاصة بالأميرات . يتميز هذا القصر أيضا بغرفة عرفت بغرفة ولي العهد و التي صنعت أرضيتها من الفلين المضغوط حتى تمنع أصوات أقدام الداخل لعدم أزعاج الطفل النائم. و في عهد الملك فاروق تم تجديد القصر و قام بحفر سرداب يربط بين القصر و البحر لكي يتم استخدامه في حالة حدوث أي حصار أو هجوم و قد حدث الأنقلاب العسكري في يوليو 1952 قبل الأنتهاء من حفر هذا السرداب. لذلك عندما علم الملك فاروق بهذا الأنقلاب قام بأصطحاب أسرته و حاشيته لقصر رأس التين و قبل ذهابه هناك قام بحرق بعض المستندات و الوثائق الملكية الخاصة به في حمام القصر و يقال ان هناك أثار لهذا الحرق في أجزاء من الحمام.
Is due to consider the establishment of the palace to the King Ahmed Fouad, who is chief architect Italo Ferrucci in 1925 to establish this in the gardens of Montazah Palace, which was the royal residence of the royal family to spend the summer. This palace, and is characterized by a combination of different artistic styles and highlighted at all, in addition to the Byzantine style Altaratien Gothic and classical as well as the Islamic model. And for the label, the word "Eros" was originally a word Turkey emerged as a term in Islamic architecture and means the place of the harem, where he was an old taboo to meet men and women together so it was not allocate part of the house to collect the harem and to preserve the inviolability and privacy. The palace contains many antiques and works of art also features a French style that made Bzacharvh Baroque and Alrkko, which consists of geometric motifs and intertwined floral and this model model Arrupe. Composed of minors from the inside of the middle hall and a courtyard covered with any height of the building and is surrounded by rooms and suites, which consists of three floors: - ground floor contains several rooms and halls of the most important office of King and the dining room and billiard room. Floor East, where rooms Chaperones and Alhamshrgip a layer serving princesses and king. Finally, the upper floor, which contains two wings of the King and Queen are linked by a broad balcony. And also there are some private rooms Balomirat. The palace also features this room knew the Chamber of the Crown Prince, which was made of cork floor-ROM in order to prevent vote-foot home to not disturb the sleeping child. During the reign of King Farouk Palace was renovated and the basement dug linking the palace and the sea in order to be used in case of any blockade or attack and has been a military coup in July 1952 before the completion of drilling of the basement. So when he learned of King Farouk accompany the coup by his family and entourage to Ras El-Teen Palace, and before he got there, he burned some documents and documents of private property in the bath and the palace say that there are traces of this burning in parts of the bathroom.

A nice noctural shot Maged, yes the stars like effect is not bad but complimenting. The details and sharpness are great, glad there is no movement of boats, it makes the place in great mood. Well done shot.
