urShadow's Blog: Review: Nuruosmaniye Mosque, Istanbul, Turkey

From 20150224-23 - Istanbul Day 1 and 2 - Riyadh Airport - Grand Bazar

On our 2nd day in Istanbul, 24th February 2015, after visiting Caferaga Medresseh we planned to visit The Grand Bazaar, on our way we found Nuruosmaniye Mosque at 4:30pm, it was not in our plan but it was Asar prayer time thus I went in and I am glad that I did. It was the 1st mosque in Istanbul I visited from inside and I found it very beautiful. Also performing Wazu/Wadu with icy cold water from 260 years old taps was a great experience. It is just outside The Grand Bazaar thus it can be easily visited while visiting the The Grand Bazaar.

Location: 41.010213, 28.970597 (next to The Grand Bazaar)
