This looks very plain from the outside but is a fascinating place inside! It has an aquaduct terminating in the centre of the pond. There are balconies with windows looking into the pond which is open to the sky. There are beautiful carvings all along. Apparently this was the place to indulge for the King and his wives, in the pool which would be filled with scented water!
