ISLAMIC ARCHITECTURE ENV ADAPTATION: Water elements On a hill overlooking Granada, the Alhambra—a sprawling palace-citadel that comprised royal residential quarters, court complexes flanked by official chambers, a bath, and a mosque—was begun in the thirteenth century . Its most celebrated portions—a series of courtyards surrounded by rooms—present a special combination of the moorish columns and arcades, fountains, and light-reflecting water basins and fountains, found in courtyards—the Lion Court in particular. This combination is understood to be a physical realization of descriptions of Paradise in Islamic poetry. In addition,functional benefits are there; eg. the water is mixing with the air to increase humidity and cooleness.
