Aziziye Mosque

Reviewed By carolas936 - Marietta, United States

Aziziye Mosque combines Baroque and traditional Ottoman architecture in a pleasing way. The original Mosque was commissioned in the late 17th century by Damat Mustafa Pasha (husband of Hatice Sultan, the daughter of sultan Mehmet IV). Unfortunately, it was destroyed in a fire in 1867, but was recommissioned by Pertevniyal, the mother of sultan Abdülaziz in 1874. (It's name Aziziye refers to Abdülaziz). The stone mosque square is in plan, with twin minarets flanking the main entrance. Minaret şerefe (balcony) roofs are supported by columns in a style unusual in Turkey. The şadırvans (water fountains) are adjacent to the minarets. The narthex (porch) has three small domes supported by six marble pillars, and the massive wood door is reminiscent of Baroque cathedral doors. Atypically, the mosque's main floor is elevated, accessed by stairs. The praying hall is square with a large dome, tastefully decorated, and well illuminated by large windows. The mihrab (niche pointing to Mecca) and mimber (pulpit) are dark bluish marble framed by gilded Baroque embellishments. I found the mosque to be a peaceful place for contemplation, and appreciated the architects skill in combining the Baroque and Ottoman architectural elements in a pleasing style. Aziziye mosque is beautifully lit at night. It is open daily with no entry fee, although a donation is appreciated. It is an active mosque, so may be closed during prayers.

Sems-i Tebrizi Tomb & Mosque

Reviewed By 161ebrahimm

Deeply spiritual experience for those that are keen on Sufism... the tomb is a short distance from the Mevlana museum.
