  • This city is named after the great Muslim ruler Al-Waleed. Balad in Arabic means city or country. They called it Balad-el-Waleed at first, and after the bloody reconquista, the barbaric white christians corrupted its name to Valladolid, which still resembles the true Arabic name. (Balad=Vallad, Waleed=Olid). بلد الوليد, فُتِحت في زمن خلافة الوليد بن عبدالملك بن مروان الأُموي, و حرف النصاري الإسم الاصلي بعد سقوط دولة الأندلس في أسبانيا "بلد الوليد" إلي فالادوليد
  • هذه بلد الوليد
  • I know one person from Mönchengladbach, who now lives in Valladolid.
