Upon reaching the front of the inner gateway one has to enter a door to the right (to prevent the use of a ram to break in), it has intertwining dragons above it. One enters a series of corridors with later a door with two lions on either side as well as one with lions facing each other above its lintel. All supposedly had a mythical guarding effect. At some point one passes, following a set of five bending corridors, what seems to be a grave. In the end one reaches the courtyard. Here are pictures of that part.
