great, thanks for the info, though this has been designed by French artits, this awesome architecture is very much indendtical in many parts with Hindu temples in India! The upper portion is identical with Lord Jagannath Temple in Puri, Orissa!! It is a very nice and fine architectural record! Thanks for sharing, best regards, Bikas

One of the best shots for the Baron Castle, very well done Khaled, I didn't visit Egypt from 3 years now, I don't know if the green grass is digitally manipulated or they actually planted some trees and grass, very well done my friend, cheers,

Very nice Khaled - this is a bit different for you! Interesting architecture, and the colors have taken on a kind of flat quality - a bit like the old hand-tinted postcards!
