Muslims had an important relationship with water in Al-Andalus. They integrated hydraulic techniques from Romans and other cultures to manage and distribute water according to Islamic norms. Water was also precious in Islamic imagination as a part of paradise. When Muslims arrived in Iberia, they reactivated urban life and built new cities, mosques, baths and economic activities requiring water supplies. Their water treatment involved specialized guilds regulating ditches within cities according to urban structures. In Granada, the Nasrid sultan constructed a prodigious hydraulic system at the Alhambra diverting water from the Darro River through canals and reservoirs to supply the Alhambra, Generalife, Medina and more.
The strategies included creating large pedestrian zones along lake edge, developing on outer road by strengthening existing road network, creating approximately 2 km of access streets as
well as new access point of lake front enhancing recreational potential by improving public facilities and encouraging overall development within the precinct.

Funding for mine land reclamation is difficult to acquire and, while the environmental benefits of reclamation are fully understood, the economic benefits of reclamation are just beginning to be appreciated. Innovations in landscape design and reuse planning can attract partnerships with lenders and investors and spur the economic development associated with reuse of abandoned mine lands. Strategies like energy development, carbon sequestration, and wetland banking can address environmental concerns, but should also preserve historical and cultural legacies in order to maximize economic gain. These environmental strategies are now being encouraged by State and Federal agencies, while the cultural legacies are more universally overlooked. This presentation will discuss the ways in which environmental design of reclamation projects could benefit both economically and environmentally by the inclusion of preservation and consideration of historical and cultural legacies of the sites, while still utilizing core environmental strategies.

CAMISSA, (the ancient Khoi name for Cape Town - meaning the place of sweet waters) is a spatial framework proposa.
CAMISSA is a development framework which through the use of water, focuses on the reinstatement of the ecological link that reunites the mountain and the ocean, into a public landscape, as a sustainable solution for Cape Town's CBD. It is a means by which to re-structure the City of Cape Town in accordance with environmental principles. Aimed at a sustainable approach to water use, planning, design and management that is based on the intrinsic value of water as a significant public resource that is not separate from the value of land and landscape. The vision is one of a genuinely progressive dual water management strategy that offers opportunities for new models to transform the future well-being of the city into an equal society for all people; and allows for public integration and education through the recreational use of the system.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

2. 1. What relationship did Muslims have with water?
Al-Andalus was formed thanks to a Muslim society integrated
into civilization and the world of classical Islam. In these years of
Islamic domination, there were many innovations that this
culture introduced in the territories of al - Andalus, among them
several hydraulic techniques inherited both from the Romans
and from the more traditional oriental cultures. Indeed, the
management and distribution of water in Al-Andalus was not
alien to the fact of its belonging to the whole of Dar-al-Islam.
This means that Islamic norms, apart from local customs,
affected the way of organizing what was undoubtedly the most
precious asset of nature for Muslims. In addition, water has a
present value in the imagination of Muslims, since it is a
fundamental part of paradise. Paradise is also present in the
agrarian space both inside and outside the madina. Thus, in the
interior of the cities we find gardens and gardens.
3. 1. What relationship did Muslims have with water?
The best way to
understand this project
has been working with
cooperative work
groups, where each one
had an opinion about
the different concepts
worked on.
4. WATER TREATMENT
The provision of water to the city
appears united to the zirí dynasty as
it demonstrates the fact that the turn
of the acequia was destined for the
turns of Alcazaba Qadima, the seat
of the sinhayíes emirs. In addition,
said channel appears to have had a
first objective fill the cistern located
in this palace, whose name is
revealed, since it is called Aljibe del
Rey and also Al-Qadim, the old.
6. 3. Difference in water treatment between Muslims
and other peoples
The arrival of the Arabs will mean a reactivation of urban life and the founding of new cities.
In many cases we know that the hydraulic supplies of antiquity were destroyed. Thus, the
urban reservoirs, mosques, baths and economic activities developed in them required a
water supply. The flow of the ditches in the interior of an Andalusian city had to adjust to
multiple uses. Its regulation could be carried out by specialized guilds. The organization of
the ditch inside the medina followed especially the urban structure marked by the mosques
and neighborhoods.
7. 3. Difference in water treatment between Muslims and
other peoples
At this point of
the project, we
specify in our city
of Granada
8. 4. Muslim hydraulic constructions in Granada
and specifically in the Alhambra.When in 1238 the Nasrid sultan Muhammad I chose
Granada to build his residence and cut on the hill of
the Alhambra he devised a prodigious hydraulic
system. He built a dam or diversion dam from the
Darro River that diverted the stored water to a ditch
or channel, excavated in the rock halfway down the
slope, called the Acequia Real. From this canal and
its branch, the Acequia del Tercio, the water
descends almost 6 kilometers until reaching the
Alhambra. The Acequia del Tercio feeds the
Albercón de las Damas that irrigates the orchards of
the area and the Acequia Real continues and
extends into a network of reservoirs, reservoirs,
ferris wheels, fountains, pools and pillars that carry
water to the Generalife, to the Medina , to the
9. 4. Muslim hydraulic constructions in Granada and
specifically in the Alhambra.
Finally we
started creating
the exhibition
posters
10. 5. BE THE CHANGE
The Muslims liked the environment for water
since for them it was like a paradise. The
Water for them was a super important and
sacred thing, since they said that they came
from the gods of heaven.They used to look for
the areas where there was abundant water to
stay to live together with their relatives and
thus be able to stock up on it as much as to
drink, irrigated land … etc.
