Huge mosque built in the century, featuring beautiful oriental frescoes.

In the pedestrianized city center. This jewel of stone and brick architecture was built in the 15th century under Sultan Murad II on the site of the former Christian church of St. Petka. Still in activity, this huge Friday mosque has nine domes and beautiful oriental frescoes. A sundial offered by a Russian officer was placed on the south facade in 1878. The wooden front, north facade, is a masterpiece and houses a restaurant with a pleasant terrace.

Remarquablement bien située et mise en valeur juste à côté de vestiges romains et de la rue piétonne centrale de la ville, cette mosquée (fermée lors de notre passage, interpelle!) incite à la prendre en photo, ses façades fraîchement rénovées et son minaret sont majestueux. Les briquettes lui donnent un rendu exceptionnel et son implantation est ravissant.

Superbe mosquée, tant à l'intérieur comme à l'extérieur. Il est possible de la visiter dedans, toujours en silence et sans franchir une zone balisée. Emmenez quelque chose pour cacher les cheveux si vous êtes femme, probablement on vous le demandera s'il y a des gens à l'intérieur.
