Next, 7 arcades — like 7 days in a week, 12 chimneys that symbolize the months and 52 rooms according to how many weeks there are in a year. There are 365 windows in the mansion, the same as the number of days in the year. The original interiors are accessible to visitors on the first floor of the mansion.
