History and locationThe palace is located in the Gezira area, an island in the Nile, of Zamalek in Cairo.[1] It was built on the orders of Prince Amr Ibrahim (1903–1977), member of the Muhammad Ali dynasty, in 1921.[2][3][4] The architecture of the building was Garo Balyan, the youngest member of the Balyan family.[5] The cost of the construction was about 200 million euros ($257 million).[3] The palace was used by the Prince as a summer residence.[6][7] Style and layoutThe architectural style of the palace is of neo-Ottoman.[9] It also reflects dominant styles of the Muhammad Ali dynasty in terms of its architectural and decorative style.[8] Total area of the building is 850 square meters.[6][9] It is made of a basement and two floors.[6] In the entrance hall there is a marble fountain decorated with blue ceramics.[1] The palace is surrounded by a garden. Current usageThe palace became a state property on 9 November 1953 following the coup in Egypt.[10][11][12] It was first employed as a club by the Arab Socialist Union until 1971.[13] In 1998 it was renovated by the Egyptian architect Aly Raafat[6] and began to be used a ceramics museum in February 1999.[13] Then it became an art center, called El Gezira art center, also in 1999.[1] References1. ^1 2 {{cite journal|last=El Aref|first=Nevine|title=Take some steps back in time|journal=Al Ahram|date=4–10 March 1999|issue=419|url=http://weekly.ahram.org.eg/1999/419/tr1.htm|accessdate=24 July 2013}} 2. ^{{cite web|title=Famille Souveraine|url=http://www.egyptedantan.com/famille_souveraine/famille_souveraine35.htm|publisher=Egypt e dantan|accessdate=24 July 2013}} 3. ^1 {{cite news|title=Egypt: The return of the King?|url=http://m.aljazeera.com/story/201378204157727462|accessdate=24 July 2013|work=Al Jazeera|date=8 July 2013}} 4. ^{{cite web|title=Museum of Islamic Ceramics: Beautiful Browsing for the History-phobes|url=http://www.cairo360.com/article/artsandculture/55/museum-of-islamic-ceramics-beautiful-browsing-for-the-history-phobes|work=Cairo 360|accessdate=24 July 2013|date=17 March 2010}} 5. ^{{cite web|last=Raafat|first=Samir|title=Cairo's belle époque architects 1900 - 1950|url=http://www.egy.com/people/98-10-01.php#balyan|work=EGY|accessdate=24 July 2013}} 6. ^1 2 3 {{cite web|title=Museum of Islamic Ceramics|url=http://egyptholidaysdirectory.com/listing/museum-of-islamic-ceramics-cairo.html|publisher=Egypt Holidays Diractory|accessdate=24 July 2013}} 7. ^{{cite book|author1=Jonathan M.
