'Palace of the Ibrahim family'

This picture is a bit deceptive because the compound was enormous and the wall enclosed an entire city block (see http://pbase.com/helenpb/image/155509959 for the full effect). The sign to the left of the gate says, “Palace of the Ibrahim family.” There could have been several homes in a gated community, I'm not really sure, but I may post a few other pictures of it.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly unsharp.

Very interesting. It looks almost antiseptic. V

Interesting that the gates look big enough for a vehicle, but there's a curb !! Sure would be nice to see inside !! V

Wow, that is one enormous compound, It looks big enough here but when viewing the entire compound it is gigantic. Would love to see inside! V
