20 years later: the Arab king's palace worth 30 billion dollars stands abandoned and rotting - voila! tourism. Get a rare glimpse of Saudi Arabia's King Fahd's abandoned summer palace - a replica of the White House, decorated in pure gold and marble.
In his lifetime Fahd was worth almost $30 billion and he owned, among other things, a vacation home worth millions in the Spanish coastal city of Marbella. Today, almost 20 years after his death, the palace is no longer a masterpiece, and it seems unrelated to such a rich family.
