Stand on the House of Wisdom courtyard and activate Eagle Vision. If you direct your camera to the highest tower of the facility, you should notice a golden aura found somewhere near the top of the structure. This is the location of the chest we are interested in.

To reach it, start by climbing to the top of the tower. We recommend choosing the right wall for the approach, as at the top on this side there is a large vegetation area where you can easily hide. The upper floors of the tower are a restricted area and are patrolled by hostile guards . You can eliminate the group guarding the tower by e.g. whistling to attract individual guards and eliminating them one by one.
