It resembles white house in many aspects, but not an exact replica or exact scale model at all.
there are many differences.
the front porch column layout is different.
it is about 60% size.
the back part is very different.
there is more close to real thing replicas in Dallas Texas, except
this one is not white, but red brick walled.
and another exact replica Saudi King built in Coasta Del Sol in Spain.
However, I do knot know the exact location of these buildings,
and if anyone knows about them, please post coordinates to
these buildings.
also, there is doll museum which is 50% replica of white house
in Orange California near Knotts berry farm.

The late Saudi King's neaer replica is somewhere near the attached marker which is sadly not in hi-res.
At the other end of Marbella , you will find the Golden Mile, the road that links Marbella to the jet-set capital of Puerto Banus. The Golden Mile is home to several outrageous properties, not the least of which is the Palace belonging to King Fahd of Saudi Arabia . Modelled on Washington´s White House, the palace can accommodate hundreds of guests and staff. Look out for the sabre etched in the lawn of the property, prominently lit at night. You will know if the King is in residence... his fleet of aircraft will be parked on the tarmac at Malaga airport – look out for the gold-tipped wings, and his yacht will be moored in the harbour at Malaga – Puerto Banus is too small to accommodate it!

Dallas White House should be of high res. any one knows about its location?
and does any one have photos of Marbella White House?
both Atlanta and California White Houses can be viewed with
local.live.com perspective views from all directions.
