The Al Qasimi Palace in Ras Al Khaimah, UAE, is on the market for AED 25 million. Completed in 1985 by the late Sheikh Abdulaziz bin Humaid Al Qasimi, this four-storey mansion covers 20,000 square meters and features 35 rooms. Its architecture marries Islamic, Moroccan, Persian, and Indian styles, highlighted by French and Belgian chandeliers, Thassos marble floors, and a distinctive glass pyramid roof.
Despite its opulence, the palace has been unoccupied since its completion, largely due to family objections to sculptures and artworks depicting human and animal forms. This abandonment has given rise to local legends, with residents reporting occurrences like flickering lights, echoing footsteps, and sightings of ghostly figures, leading to its moniker, “Palace of Ghosts.”
In 2019, Tareq Ahmad Al Sharhan, the current owner, took over the property, restoring it and reopening it to the public as Al Qasr Al Ghamedh, or “the Palace of Ambiguity.” This restoration aimed to maintain its artistic essence while reshaping its narrative from a haunted site to a cultural heritage museum.
The palace is open for public visits daily from 9 am to 7 pm. Interested buyers can reach out to Tareq Al Sharhan via WhatsApp at 052 828 2222 for inquiries regarding the sale. Through this transformation, the palace not only sheds its ghostly reputation but also seeks to celebrate its historical significance within the community.
