Emirates Palace, part 2

For whatever reason, I couldn't upload more photos in the previous post about the Emirates Palace. 

And then the week was really busy again (including working a big chunk of last weekend, just in an attempt to catch up) ... so it's taken me much longer than I expected to get back to this post.  So here are more Emirates Palace photos. Thanks for your patience!

This is the ceiling above the main entry area of the building. Intricate patterns and lovely colors.

More intricate patterns on wood panels, covering a vent of some sort.

A HUGE tapestry on one of the walls. (So big, I had to do this angle for the photo to give an idea of the size ... easily the height of one story of the building.)

Unique handles on some of the front entry doors. (I'd say 2-3 feet in length.) Apologies ... still haven't figured out how to import these photos the way they are in my laptop and share them right-side-up!

And yes, real palm trees too :-)
