Dubara Palace, Palace in Garden City district, Cairo, Egypt
The palace features a symmetrical facade with ornate windows, balconies, and architectural details characteristic of early 20th-century Egyptian residential buildings.
Constructed in 1909 by architect Edward Matasek for Emanuel Casdagli, the palace later housed the American Embassy before World War II.
The palace, located in Simon Bolivar Square, reflects the period when Garden City district served as the residential area for Egyptian elite families.
The building currently functions as the Kasr El-Dobara Experimental Language School, offering educational services to local students.
The structure combines elements of Austrian architectural influence with local Egyptian building traditions, resulting from Matasek's European training.
