Omar Bey Sadiq al-Baqli

Description (The direction towards Mecca (Qibla) is described as eastern and other directions are named accordingly)

A walled enclosure with single-storey structures by the main façade and an open wooden canopy over cenotaphs placed at the back of the site. The main (eastern) façade slants obliquely in relation to the rectangular lot, following the line of the street that runs at an angle to Sultan Ahmad street, to which the lots in the area are aligned. The strictly symmetrical tripartite façade features a central entrance gate to each side, a pair of windows covered by semicircular arches, separated by a pillar with an engabed semi-column but otherwise undecorated, with a small plain oculus above. The windows are fitted with decorative wrought-iron grilles of a vaguely Art Noveau design (not Islamic patterns), and simple panelled wooden shutters. The very slightly protruding entrance section is slightly higher and contains a rectangular recess topped with a cavetto cornice with a rectangular door, the lintel of which and the relieving arch above are surrounded by a plane rectangular frame (possibly intended to be carved into knotted mouldings but never finished?) The façade is topped by a simple stone cavetto cornice and simple fleur-de-lys crenellations. The corners and the sections with openings are built of ashlar stone, while the parts between them are built of rubble stone. The external facades are coated with yelow wash.
The secondary northern façade (longer side of the lot) is plain, built of rubble stone and plastered. It has an undecorated secondary entrance in its right section and two rectangular windows with grilles and shutters similar to those in the front façade. The window frames feature a wooden horseshoe arch in the upper part.
The main entrance leads to the vestibule that opens on the courtyard with a wide rectangular opening with a wooden-and-stained-glass screen including a glazed two-leaf door. Rooms in the north-eastern and south-eastern corners of the enclosure are accessed from the courtyard. The latter has a simple wooden porch on two slender posts.
The south-western quarter of the enclosure is taken by an elaborate free-standing canopy of rectangular plan, with a roof supported on three square slender wooden posts to each shorter side, and four to each longer side, and with four internal posts supporting the structure of the lantern. The roof ends wooden eaves with elaborate frills. The windows of the octagonal lantern are divided into geometric panes glazed with transparent and coloured glass. It is covered with a conical roof.
The canopy covers two elaborately carved marble cenotaphs, one of them remarkable for a naturalistic depiction of a basket of flowers in raised relief
