Palais Bahia

The Palais Bahia, or Palace of the Favorite, was built by two powerful grand viziers at the end of the 19th century. This will be a relatively short gallery featuring mainly the elaborate ceilings, which were different in every apartment we visited.

This ceiling has designs seen on Moroccan doors all over the country.

Looking like an Oriental carpet, posted earlier:
