The video explores the significant influence of Islamic architecture on Western styles, highlighting how Western architects adopted various Islamic architectural elements. The Byzantine Empire, for instance, sent envoys to Baghdad to study Islamic architecture, leading to the construction of buildings in Byzantine regions that mirrored Islamic styles. The spread of these styles continued through Andalusia and Sicily, influencing church architecture in Europe, such as in Saragossa, where Islamic arches and minaret-like towers were incorporated. Additionally, European artists adopted Islamic decorative techniques, including colorful ceiling decorations and Arabic inscriptions.
