Cities

Fortress

A fortress was a large and powerful structure made to protect the city or region. It had high walls, towers, and sometimes a moat. Soldiers guarded it and used it as a military base.

Souk

The souk was a traditional market full of life and color. Merchants sold all kinds of goods like food, spices, fabrics, jewelry, and pottery. It was also a place where people met and exchanged news.

Madrasa

The madrasa was a school where students studied the Quran, science, mathematics, and literature. Teachers, called scholars, taught both religious and academic subjects to young learners.

Medina walls

The medina walls surrounded the old city to keep it safe from enemies. They were tall and thick, made of stone or bricks, and had gates where people could enter or leave the city.

Mosque

The mosque was the most important religious building in the city. Muslims went there to pray several times a day. It was also a place to learn about religion and sometimes discuss community matters.

Citadel

The citadel was a strong building usually built on a hill inside the city. It served as the last place of defense during attacks. Important leaders or soldiers lived there, and it protected the people in times of war.

Baths

The baths were public places where people went to clean themselves and relax. They had hot and cold rooms, and they were also a social space where people talked and shared ideas.

Granary

The granary was a building used to store grain and other food supplies. It helped the city have enough food during bad harvests or wars. Keeping food dry and safe was very important for survival.

Suburbs

The suburbs were the areas outside the city walls. Farmers, craftsmen, and traders often lived there. Life in the suburbs was quieter, but these areas were important for providing food and goods to the city.
