Visit the Tomb of Harwa
Enter the first pillared hall 

Exit the tomb

On the southern wall of the entrance passage in the first pillared hall  a text that recounts the ideal life of Harwa is inscribed. That text is inspired by autobiographical compositions  dating to  the First Intermediate Period (1300 years older), in which the owner enunciates the good deeds. Here begins the so-called "Path of Harwa".  From this point on, the southern walls of the  passages through the rooms of the tomb describe the stages of the  journey that will carry Harwa from life to death and from death to the eternal afterlife.
