Great place! A historic mosque dating back to the 1500s. Beautiful architecture, calm atmosphere, few tourists. Free entrance, convenient location near the bazaar. I advise you to visit - you will feel the real Istanbul!

A very beautiful mosque in one of the most interesting areas of Istanbul. There is a huge market area nearby. The historical center is nearby, and the metro station is quite close. The mausoleum of Bayazet II is located on the territory of the mosque. One of the greatest sultans of the Ottoman Empire.

The recommendation is not to pass by, but to visit this mosque! You can safely get inside it. Take off your shoes at the entrance. And, of course, girls should cover their heads and be with their arms and legs closed, men should also cover their legs and arms (definitely not in a beach dress). I was very surprised by the carpet inside, incredibly soft and clean. The mosque itself is very beautiful, both inside and out! Everything is clean, friendly and nice people work. It will take no more than 10 minutes to visit and "see" on your own. If with an audio guide from the same Yandex - up to 30 minutes)

Beyazit Mosque (one of Sultan Suleiman's sons and his Hurrem) Built by order of Sultan Bayezid II in 1500-1506, it is located in the old part of the city on Beyazit Square, next to the gates of the Grand Bazaar. We got into it by chance, there were no plans, we stomped on foot from Suleymaniye to the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul (Turkish name - Kapalicarsi) — one of the oldest and largest indoor markets in the world and saw the mosque at night, admittedly, in the last days before flying home, some kind of excitement began to visit important places, and here the son himself, well, how not to go in) There is a small garden behind the mosque, where the turbas (crypts) of Sultan Bayezid II, his daughter Selcuk Sultan and Grand Vizier Mustafa Reshid Pasha are located - as we later read on the Internet, but of course we did not see it, because it was already very late, and there was a market and the famous ice cream in front. 🤭 In fact, you can't get around Istanbul in 5 days, even in the mode, I left at 7 and returned at 11. The Beyazit Mosque is not a very famous place, otherwise it would have been in our plans initially, but it is very, very beautiful and, if you look at it, within walking distance from Fatih. All mosques are beautiful, some are attracted by color schemes or expensive decorations, others by antiquity or modernity, but in this one, we felt some kind of calm. Well I do not know… We were there for literally 15-20 minutes and it was great that we came in. Come in too.

As for me, I liked it more than the Blue Mosque. There is no crowd, there is no crush, everything can be easily viewed and photographed, and you can also easily look inside if you are curious and you are not a Muslim. There is a large square nearby and, again, few people. There is a bookstore next to the mosque, it seemed to me that this is part of the Grand Bazaar, where you can search for various literature in Turkish.

The mosque is good, like all the others in the city. There are plenty of mosques in the city (at least where I went). It is very convenient, as the time has come, you can safely pray.

Coming to Istanbul and not visiting this mosque is an omission worth avoiding. Here, every stone keeps a history, every decoration is imbued with the grandeur of centuries. Tourists freeze with delight, architecture fans fall in love at first sight, and true connoisseurs of historical mosques feel the breath of the past come alive before their eyes. It's not just a place — it's the heart of Istanbul that needs to be seen, felt and remembered forever.”

The Beyazit Mosque was built by the Ottoman Sultan Bayezid II in 1500-1506, half a century after the fall of Constantinople. The mosque is located on the square of the same name. Now the mosque looks great both externally and in its interior decoration. It is not difficult to see this during your walk along the Divan Yolu street...

The mosque is located on the square of the same name in the European part of Istanbul. I lived nearby. Convenient location - there are many famous places in the city nearby. The mosque is more than 500 years old. The mosque has a madrasah and the oldest baths. Near the university and the entrance to the Grand Bazaar.
