The Suleimannier Mosque is the Royal Mosque of the Ottoman Empire, commissioned by Suleiman the Great more than 400 years ago. Behind the mosque's worship wall is the tomb of Suleiman the Great and his wife. The Suleimaniyah Mosque is one of the most famous attractions in Istanbul, Turkey, from its third mountain location overlooking the city around the Golden Horn Bay.
It is located in the old town of Istanbul for free. There are few tourists compared to the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia, but the interior of the mosque is very beautiful. I like it the most among the mosques I've been to. The window at the top of the entrance is a natural ventilation system to prevent the inside of the mosque from getting dirty with sous when the lights were lit using candles at that time. He politely explained Islam and the Suleimanie Mosque!
Compared to the Blue Mosque, it is much quieter here. The most beautiful mosque in Istanbul is not a false name. The building uses more red and white combinations, still with towering domes and patterned red carpets, marble floors and columns. Against the blue of the sky and the blue of the Bosphorus, everything is beautiful here. This mosque is luxurious, very large and beautiful, the carvings and the patterns on the vault are really beautiful, very elegant, and there is a simple feeling.
Next to Golden Horn Bay, on the top of the mountain, you can overlook the Bosphorus Strait at your feet. The view is excellent. The surrounding area is garden-style construction. It is quiet and medium in crowds. You can enjoy the quiet and ancient mosque quietly.
Great. There are many majestic mosques with high artisticity in Istanbul. This is one of them. You can visit it for free, but it's not a shame to pay for it.
