eine der schönsten Städte, die ich besucht habe ...
Blick nach Südwesten ...
Alcázar de los Reyes Cristianos
Alcázar [alˈkaθaɾ] ist eine spanische Bezeichnung für ein Schloss, insbesondere für einen Palast der Mauren in Spanien. Aber auch Schlösser, die nicht maurischen oder arabischen Ursprungs sind, werden so genannt. (Die häufigste spanische Bezeichnung für Burgen und Schlösser ist castillo, siehe auch Kastilien.)
Spanisch alcázar ist entlehnt aus arabisch القصر / al-qaṣr / ‚Festung, Schloss‘. Das arabische qasr ist seinerseits aus lat. castrum ‚Feldlager‘ entlehnt. Im spanischen Wort alcázar ist vorne der arabische Artikel al inkorporiert (siehe Agglutination).
Sobald ihr die Bezeichnung "Alcázar" seht, müsst ihr auch schon hin - der Alcázar in Sevilla ist auch so fantastisch - bedeuted interessante Gebäude + fantastische Gärten + Wasser, dass für die Mauren natürlich eine wichtige Bedeutung hatte.
Die Alhambra in Granada ist auch ein Alcázar.

This was a real blood test. Blood was added to the anti-A, anti-B, and Anti-D serum. The agglutination visible only in the anti-D circle indicates that this blood type is RH positive. No agglutination in the A or B circles indicates that the blood is type O. You can find additional images of this laboratory procedure at www.anatomycorner.com
In this test, you can see the A circle begin to clump. This person is probably type A, but the test needs more time to complete. You can find additional images of this laboratory procedure at www.anatomycorner.com
