المستخلص

This research deals with the architectural and artistic features of Al-Khawaja Gabra Palace in Qena Governorate. Shedding light on this palace is a new study as researchers have not dealt with it before and it is not registered as an Islamic antiquity in Qena. This palace is really an architectural masterpiece with all its details and architectural, decorative and artistic elements. It is also of an archaeological value as it dates back to an important period in Egypt's history, i.e., the era of Muhammad Ali's dynasty. This research deals with the archaeological and architectural importance of this palace. It also reviews the mechanisms of taking advantage of it in tourism by adding it to the landmarks of the heritage tourism system in this area. The research follows the comparative analytical descriptive approach to reach new results.
