Thulaim Palace (Arabic: قصر ثليم) or Thulaim Guesthouse (Arabic: مضيف ثليم), is a double-storey multipurpose historic building in the easternmost extreme of al-Futah, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, located next to the Batʼha Commercial Center. It once served as one of the quarantine facilities for treating patients during the smallpox epidemic of the 1940s. Built between 1936 and 1939 by King Abdulaziz ibn Saud on a farm with the same name situated on the edge of Wadi al-Batha in the northeastern fringes of the old city walls, it overlooks the eponymous neighborhood of Thulaim which itself got named after the compound.[1][2]
