New photos of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s summer vacation mansion have been released, and it’s apparent that Turkey’s president has no reservations over displaying excessive luxury: the 85,000 square meter palace has five buildings and a pool, as well as an artificial beach made with a 10,966 square meter landfill–despite the town already being located on the coastal waters of Marmaris.
Şefik Birkiye, the architect who designed Erdogan’s mansion, revealed the interiors and exteriors of the estate today, nearly three years after its completion. The home reportedly cost 640 million liras ($73 million dollars), but is only a fraction of the value of Erdogan’s primary home–also designed by Birkiye– which clocks in at a whooping $615 million dollars.
