The sounds from the city below grow quieter as you enter the cool stone palace chambers, where you are greeted by walls covered in ornate, colorful images, like this one, that seems to move in the dim torchlight. How might you feel as you move through such a space? What type of person do you think the king you’re about to meet might be? Explore the palace of Ashur-nasir-pal II with A.R.T.
