While Michael Jackson's memorials will not be taking place at his Neverland Valley Ranch as had been originally announced, the world's attention has been focused on the pop singer's renowned compound in Los Olivos, California, all week.
In 1988, at the age of 29, Jackson purchased over 2,500 acres of property for about $17 million from a golf course magnate and set about the task of turning it into a fortress of magical, spare-no-expense proportions.
