Property description
Located on a prominent hill in Ras Al Khaimah, Al Qasr Al Ghamedh, it offers grandeur, mystery & architectural brilliance. Originally envisioned by Sheikh Abdulaziz Bin Humaid Al Qasimi of Ras Al Khaimah's royal family, the palace was intended to be a national landmark of elegance & luxury.It offers a chance to own a piece of history & has 35 exquisitely designed rooms.
Following the establishment of the U.A.E., Sheikh Abdulaziz chose a super plot for his personal palace. The building began with ground leveling & the issuance of a building permit on June 2nd, 1975. After a decade, the palace's strong foundation & structure was completed.
Skilled artisans were brought in to use their creativity, resulting in a stunning fusion of Islamic architecture with local, Indian, Persian & Moroccan elements. The natural lighting, entering through the palace’s dome & reflecting off celestial sculptures, creates an enchanting ambiance, plus the ceilings have rare French & Belgian chandeliers, adding to the opulence.
Clad in rare, bright white marble, the same used in the Holy Mosque of Mecca, it stands as testament to architectural excellence. However, Sheikh faced opposition from his close friends & family due to the palace’s artwork, which included human & animal figures. Reluctant to remove these masterpieces, the Sheikh chose to leave the palace abandoned.
This abandonment sparked rumors & tales of ghosts & jinn haunting the palace, adding to its allure & establishing it as a mysterious site. Despite interest from celebrities & dignitaries, including Pakistan's former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto, Sheikh Abdulaziz held onto it, hoping his close circle would change their views.
