A beautiful monument of architecture, architecture and an active (!) mosque. The art of the ancient masters can be admired for a long time while staying there, enjoying the smallest details of the mosque's interior. Amazing! It's a pity that I couldn't stay for the common prayer, but I prayed myself, turning to God from my heart, which opens there from the very first step.

The address of spiritual peace is Eşrefoğlu Mosque. It is explained that it was used as a castle during the Eşrefoğlu Beylik period, there was a passage under the mimber on the right side of the mosque, from this passage, horses went out at a long distance to the mosque and the enemy was blockaded. It is useful to come and see, to worship here. However, due to the high number of visitors and the effect of tours, there may not be silence. The WCS are on the left side and are free.
