- Prominent Features
It is a square-plan, single-domed mosque made of Kufeki stone.
The mosque receives light from the upper and lower windows and has colored plaster grids on the upper windows, while the lower windows have classical iron bars and marble jambs.
The marble minbar has exquisite workmanship; the side rails are latticed and the preacher’s pulpit is wooden.
The mihrab is decorated with plaster stalactites, and the interior is decorated with tiles and hand-drawn works.
The tiles were made in the Tekfur Palace near Edirnekapı and include the most beautiful examples of the 18th century.
