The Sultan was very clear with how his palace was to be built. Certain elements have to be included, and it’s all about showing power. WATER is number one, without this how can you live. Every tree, stone, drawing, carvings, placement was thought out to show the power of the Sultan and his beliefs. Mathematicians, artists, thousands of people labored to make the gardens and palaces spectacular. Specific trees, stone, wood, jewels and color wildly used. Aqueducts were duh, rivers diverted, all collimating to feed gardens and the palaces.
