Abstract

Egypt has a wealth of archaeological heritage palaces, which qualifies it to be a leading country in palaces tourism. The Minya Governorate, which is blessed with a large abundance of palaces and heritage buildings dating back to different periods of time, is not properly exploited, and which possesses the elements of international tourist palaces, as it can compete greatly in the field of palace tourism. Palaces tourism is seen as a kind of heritage-focused tourism that caters to tourists with specialized interests. Germany is the most well-known nation that is drawn to this style of tourism. It is also one of the tourism types that attracts numerous visitors from all over the world due to its distinctive style. One of the most prominent palaces that can be developed and exploited for tourism is the palace of Abd El-Majid Pasha Seif Al-Nasr, which is considered an archaeological wealth because it crossed the 100-year barrier of construction, in addition to its excellent architecture and the importance of the historical events that passed through it. This research aims to cast light on one of the historical places and a unique palace in El Minya governorate as an example of Palaces Tourism.
