This is a small historical mosque, built in 1580. It has been restored, renovated and maintained. The colored class widows look very beautiful from the interior of the mosque.

Beautiful mosque,
I liked the area as they offer many good coffee places, pretzel and many outdoor seating so you can enjoy being outside when it's good weather:)
We filmed our walk around the area for our youtube @traveling_to_get_lost

I have some fond memories from here ! It was the winter of 2019, 19 April 2019 to be exact ! I was in Istanbul for few days. The person I was taking picture on my camera and met this one of the more beautiful girl from Germany with Turkish background, with hijab . I clearly remember when I asked her to take one pic of me. She took this pic with a big smile on her face . She was a little shy and little soft! She was wearing black jacket and ask colour hijab . She had “V” Valentino purse around her neck. I was speechless with her smile and couldn’t ask her for her number . Oh the tragic “What if”

Mosque on the embankment. It looks very textured against the backdrop of the Bosphorus. At sunset it is very crowded, even at the end of November. People stroll around admiring the phenomenal view of the sun setting over Topkapi. In general, I advise you to come here in the evening. Don't forget to bring a camera with a good zoom.

Such a nice mosque in such a beautiful place.

Beautiful ottoman mosque, located in the Üsküdar district, not far from the landing stage and from the Mihrimah Sultan Mosque.
In fact it's part of a complex, built near the Borphorus shore...
Worth a visit if you pass through Üsküdar !

Great sea-side mosque. Very well designed by Mimar Sinan (for those who love architecture) the transition between street, seashore, and qibla is seamless and fantastic.
