The Newcastle boss's £230 million most expensive castle in the world: an aquarium within 50,000 square feet

According to previous official news, the Saudi Arabian Public Investment Fund (PIF) acquired Newcastle for 300 million pounds. The Sun made an introduction to the Saudi consortium boss Ben Salman's "world's most expensive castle."

Ben Salman spent £230 million in 2015 to buy a mansion called the Château de Louis XIV, a 50,000-square-foot house modeled after a 17th-century French castle built between 2008 and 2011 near the Palace of Versailles. When Ben Salman bought the Citadel of Louis XIV, he hid his ownership by shell companies in France and Luxembourg because he didn't want anyone to know about it.

The house boasts a stunning aquarium with 10 bedroom suites, fountain, sound system, lights and air conditioning all controlled by smartphones, a wine cellar for up to 3,000 bottles of wine, a swimming pool indoors and outdoors, expensive art decorations on the walls, meditation rooms and cooling rooms, and a transparent underwater room with a statue of Louis XIV made of expensive Carrara marble.
