During your visit, you will discover impressive structures such as the West House, known for its organized layout with workshops and storage areas, as well as remarkable residences adorned with intricate frescoes. Among the highlights is the famous “Ladies and Papyrus” mural, offering insight into the artistic and cultural richness of the time.
