Very few corridors or passages exist in any of the buildings.

Groups of rooms, often amounting to ten or twelve, open into one another; and we find comparatively few rooms to which there is any access except through some other room.

Again, whole sets of apartments are sometimes found, between which and the rest of the palace all communication is cut off by thick walls.

Another peculiarity in the internal arrangements is the number of doorways in the larger apartments, and their apparently needless multiplication.

We constantly find two or even three doorways leading from a court into a hall, or from one hall into a second.
