What appears to be a gigantic Georgian lady's bonnet protrudes from a southwestern crag of Suleiman Too.

However, it's most interesting for the glass-sphere lamps and the views as you exit (via steep stairs past mangy stuffed animals). Trilingual photo panels explain which crevice on Suleiman Too is appropriate for curing which ailment.
