A) It’s "El patio de los Arrayanes". This space belongs to the Alhambra. Around it there are rooms, the most important are the work room of the sultan (diwan) or throne room and hearings (located north of the courtyard). These are the rooms known as "Palacio de Comares". The patio is rectangular, large and with a pond in the middle surrounded by plantations of myrtle, as we can see in the photo. It’s also known as the courtyard of the Mirtos, courtyard of the Pool and courtyard of Comares.
ReplyDeleteB) It is the Sheikh Lotf Allah's Mosque (Mezquita del jeque Lotf Allah). It is in Iran, and is one of the best works of Iranian culture. It was built in the 17th century; its construction lasted a long time.
C) It is the dome before the Mihrab (Cúpula ante el Mihrab).It is in the Mosque of Córdoba. Among the reforms and extensions carried out by Al-Hakam II in the Mosque of Cordoba, the mihrab, which was decorated with Byzantine mosaics, was preceded by a domed enclosure that constituted the "maqsurah", a space reserved for the caliph.
