Montaza Palace is a royal residence and museum in Alexandria, Egypt, built in 1892 by Khedive Abbas II and expanded in 1932 during King Fuad I's reign. Set on a Mediterranean clifftop plateau, the palace blends Islamic, Moorish, and Italian Renaissance architectural styles, featuring distinctive twin towers and elaborate interiors. The palace grounds encompass 46 hectares of landscaped gardens surrounded by fortified walls, extending to a private beach. Originally a royal summer retreat until 1952, it now serves as one of Alexandria's premier tourist attractions, showcasing the grandeur of Egypt's royal heritage.
