    The Canopus is the most famous and photographed building of Hadrian's Villa. It has a very long water basin, called Euripus and at the end is the so-called Serapeum, which was actually a spectacular summer Triclinium.
    The spectacular architecture, the water games, the rich marble decoration, the polychrome mosaics and the single latrine indicate that this building was part of the noble quarters frequented by the emperor.
    It was certainly a Triclinium intended to host sumptuous official banquets. The guests lay down on the stibadium, and in the center of the semicircle there was room for the orchestra or the actors and dancers who entertained the guests.
