In the fairy tales we read as children, there were fairy girls and beautiful princesses. While reading, we would get so lost in our dreams that we would find ourselves in a completely different world. However, what we are going to tell you now is not a fairy tale, but a real-life story of a princess who was much more beautiful than the princesses in fairy tales. In the early morning hours of November 5, 1921, there was a lot of activity in the Royal Palace Ras El Tin in Alexandria, Egypt. Queen Nazli, the second wife of King Fuad I of Egypt, had given birth for the second time and had a very beautiful baby girl. They named this beautiful girl Fevziye. Fevziye, who was a black-haired, blue-eyed and extremely cute girl, was raised very meticulously. She was surrounded by English governesses, Italian and French servants. She spent her infancy and childhood in the palaces of Cairo and Alexandria. Later, in accordance with the fashion of the period, she was sent to Switzerland to receive a better education. Although its influence had diminished at that time, Turkish was still a common language in Egypt due to Ottoman influence and Fevziye, like other members of the dynasty, spoke both Turkish and Arabic. While she was educated in Switzerland, she learned French, English and Italian in addition to her native Turkish and Arabic. Since she had grown up with foreign governesses and servants, it did not take her long to learn foreign languages and speak them fluently. During her stay in Switzerland, Fevziye became a fan of western culture and felt much freer and happier. She loved traveling and following fashion closely. She was very interested in jewelry and loved pearl necklaces. #princessfevziye #fevziyefuad #fawziafuad #documentary #venicechannel #atalaykırbancıoğlu #history #egypt #iran #kavalalilardynasty #alexandria #cairo #tehran #switzerland #şahrızapehlevi #muhammetrızapehlevi Prepared by: Atalay Kırbancıoğlu - Venice Channel
