The rain hit us really hard several times during the day, luckily there were plenty of places to step out of the rain. One of these turned out to be the House of Venus. Sometimes known as the House of Venus in the Shell. The name is derived from a tremendously large mural of Venus on one of the walls of the peristyle.
She is accompanied by Mars the god of war who happens to be chillaxin' on the left hand side of the wall.
There were other paintings throughout the house, however they did not photograph well. You can really see the rain in the picture of the painting.
