More Heliopolis, Cairo. Its founder was the Belgian Baron Empain. The streets are lined with buildings blending Medieval Egyptian, Byzantine, Moorish and Neoclassical elements. It is also called 'Heliopolis Style'.

Stray dogs in Cairo. They roam the streets at night. During the day, they sleep on the pavements.

Art Nouveau is ultra-rare in Downtown Cairo. Inside the building on Talaat Harb Square that I posted photos from yesterday. Inside it is Art Nouveau definitely.

In de getalenteerde familie Ter Borch was zoon Moses (1645-1667) uitzonderlijk getalenteerd. Nu mooi te zien in De Fundatie, Zwolle.

Inside Baron Empain Palace, Heliopolos, Cairo. Built 1907-1911 for the Belgian baron Édouard Empain (1852-1929).

The interior is by Georges-Louis Claude. It is is more bourgeois than you would expect: much like a Belgian mansion of the Belle Epoque.

I've wanted to see this for years. Baron Empain Palace, Heliopolos, Cairo. Built 1907-1911 for the Belgian Édouard Empain (1852-1929) by Alexandre Marcel. Recently restored and opened to the public, it's fascinating and crazy.
