Neat museum that opened in 2019 after the entire palace was refurbished after being ravaged. They did put in the work and the building is beautiful on the inside. Also tells its history in an interesting way. Definitely worth a visit

Architectural masterpiece Entrance from the side road “ibn Batota Road “ where there are plenty of places to park your car. 2 tickets category , first to enter the palace and second to access the roof. I advise to book the 2 tickets to have the complete experience of the palace. The architectural style blends European Indian and oriental. Surprisingly not that big from the inside , the ground floor contains only 2 reception areas and 1 dining hall. On the first floor there are 3 bedrooms and a bathroom. A wooden staircase leads to the roof to enjoy an unobstructed view of Heliopolis. The basement where the kitchen was located is closed to the public. The signage is very well done explaining the history of the palace, its founder , Heliopolis and the 1900 era Put it on your plane while visiting Cairo

An architectural masterpiece in cairo, inspired by Hindu temples built by a Belgian businessman in the middle of Heliopolis ; showing how this city is a melting pot of different cultures. The landmark is a museum in itself explaining its eerie mythical background and the story of its construction.

The Baron Palace in Cairo is a mesmerizing architectural gem that seamlessly blends European and oriental styles, reflecting the opulence of its era. Its intricate design and ornate interiors transport visitors to a bygone era of grandeur and sophistication. Stepping inside feels like entering a lavish time capsule, offering a glimpse into the lavish lifestyle of the elite during the early 20th century. While its historical significance and architectural beauty are undeniable, visitors may find its accessibility limited due to occasional closures for restoration or private events. Nonetheless, for those with a passion for history and architecture, a visit to the Baron Palace is a truly captivating experience that leaves a lasting impression of Cairo's rich cultural heritage.

The palace was designed by Alexandre Marcel, a French architect and a member of the French Institute.[9] The palace's interior was constructed and decorated by Georges-Louis Claude. Inspired mostly by Angkor Wat in Cambodia and by the Hindu temples of Orissa in East India, it was built between {it's worth noting that the place where I live is opposite the palace, so the view of the terrace in the entire scenery of the palace.} 1907 and 1911, in reinforced concrete, which was considered a symbol of luxury and status at the time. The building is impressive with the richness of its ornamentation, which includes monkeys, elephants, lions and snakes, as well as statues of Buddha, Shiva, Krishna and other Hindu deities.
