Qaṣr al-Shamsīyya

Qaṣr al-Shamsīyya (Arabic: قصرالشمسية, romanized: Qaṣr al-Shamsīyya) is a ruined palace in the al-Futah district of Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

It was built for Princess Nura bint ʿAbd al-Raḥman (1875–1950), the elder sister of King ʾAbd al-ʿAzīz Ibn Saud.

Among the distinguished female visitors to the palace was Violet Dickson, the wife of H. R. P.

[3] The building stood near the Riyadh Water Tower.

By the late 1970s, the building was no longer occupied and had fallen into dereliction.
