This mosque is more impressive than the Blue Mosque as its proportions are so balanced and the beauty and serenity is more enjoyable as there are few tourists... its difficult to find....

This is a beautiful small mosque with lovely tiles and we actually thought more stunning than the much more hyped Blue Mosque

Small and beautiful mosque. The Imman greeted us and was very nice. It is located near the Bazar de las Especias.

The tiles inside this small mosque took my breath away. We stayed here for a long time enjoying their beauty, and it was nice to have only a few people around rather than the big crowd at the Blue Mosque.

Another mosque by the great architect Sinan but with a much different feel due to the extensive use of interesting tiles.

Near the spice bazaar, a little difficult to find, but well worth it. It has beautiful tiles and they are easier to see and admire than the ones in the Blue Mosque because it is much smaller.

Hidden Jewel! Do not miss. Famous for the Mosaic. Don't go there in hurry, take some time out to marvel the beauty of small mosque and take in the spiritual atmosphere.
