Inspiration- Gardens of Persia!

I came across the Gardens of Persia whilst looking through a magazine at the GP:D I loved the design of the gardens as a whole.
 The tradition and style in the design of Persian gardens has influenced the design of gardens from Andalusia to India and beyond!
The Persian Gardens at Pasargadae were built in accordance with mathematically based geometric designs. The garden included channels of 900 meters which was constructed of carved limestone which transported water throughout the garden. The transportation was essentially a cultured irrigation system containing stone water-channels and open ditches that were designed to channel water into small basins at every 15 meters within the garden.
