Keywords:
palace, construction, architectural, FlowersAbstract
Royal palaces receive great attention due to their significant presence in various fields, especially in the tourism sector. The palace is the heart of state administration, a center for receiving delegations, and a residence for the king and his family members. Therefore, countries in general have worked on maintaining their palaces, choosing the best locations for them, designing the best plans for their construction. One of the most important royal palaces is the Palace of Flowers, which was built in the 1930s to serve as a residence for the royal family in Iraq. Our study discusses the construction of this palace, the architectural style used in its construction, as well as the floors and contents of this palace
