Qaṣr ash-Shamsīyyah
Qaṣr ash-Shamsīyyah (Arabic: قصرالشمسية, romanized: Qaṣr ash-Shamsīyyah) was a palace in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. It was built for Princess Nura bint ʿAbd al-Raḥman (1875-1950), the elder sister of King ʿAbd al-ʿAzīz Ibn Saud. The palace was north of the old town, not far from the Murabba Palace. Among the distinguished female visitors to the palace was Violet Dickson, the wife of H. R. P. Dickson. The building stood near the Riyadh Water Tower. By the late 1970s, the building was no longer occupied and had fallen into dereliction.
