The palace had a grand hall in the shape of a square, each side 60 m long with seventy-two columns, thirteen of which still stand on the enormous platform.
The tops of the columns were made from animal sculptures such as two headed bulls, lions and eagles.
The columns were joined to each other with the help of oak and cedar beams, which were brought from Lebanon.
The walls were covered with a layer of mud and stucco to a depth of 5 cm, which was used for bonding, and then covered with the greenish stucco which is found throughout the palaces.
