It’s called Burj Al Babas - truly extraordinary looking and targeting Middle Eastern buyers, although located in Turkey.
The idea was to build 732 villas and a shopping centre. The hundreds of faux chateaux being built for wealthy Gulf investors in Turkey’s northern Bolu province to be for royals.
The Burj Al Babas project remains unfinished after the developers filed for bankruptcy.
The project began in 2014 but soon encountered difficulties as Sarot Group applied for bankruptcy protection. The Sarot Group made the decision to apply for bankruptcy protection after some of their Gulf customers could not pay for the villas they had bought as part of the $200 million (175 million euros) project. The villas are worth between $400,000 to 500,000 each.
