Erected on a rounded rectangular base, the room reaches upward toward a domed interior peaking at an octagonal oculus. Suspended from the pendentives are large bleached yierka-hide lozenges, bearing stylized fiery images. Large square tiles of alternating crimson and ivory ceramic begin at the northern archway, slowly dispersing into a mosaic of red and orange swirling patterns. You also see a crisp papyrus placard atop a slender copper easel.

The red and orange tiles from the west give way to a mix of black and ivory diamond patterns, leading up to a dark fel bar along the eastern end. Colorful tapestries line the perimeter of the room, covering the walls in a wash of yellow, orange and green. Sprouting from between the wall hangings at regular intervals are tall red candles in copper sconces, while a pair of large braziers hang from the ceiling, dispensing an overbearing musky odor into the air. You also see a copper sign tacked to the wall.

The noise of the rotunda is drowned out by the roar of a gigantic roaster at the far end of the ceramic-tiled room. A plethora of spitted goats sizzle and sear in the sweltering heat and flame of the open grill. Between turns at the fire, a trio of Tehir women chop vegetables and prepare small doughy pockets upon makeshift tables to either side of the pit.

Torchlight streams down, set near the clerestory windows at the base of the squat, semi-circular dome above. The red and orange swirl-patterned tile floor blends into a continuous alternating design of blue and ivory chevrons, just a few feet from the archway leading east. Four rows of ivory columns fill the area, ending at a broad patchwork yierka-hide curtain across the back wall. In the center of the room is a long buffet table, containing a variety of desserts.
