Ortakoy Mosque
#Culture
Situated on the waterside of the Ortakoy pier square, Ortakoy Mosque stands as an elegant example of Ottoman Baroque style architecture. The mosque lies on the edge of the Bosphorus, occupying a privileged position allowing remarkable visuals both for visitors on shore and for those passing by the strait. Make sure to enjoy a walk through the neighborhood full of cafes and art galleries after your visit and enjoy ‘’kumpir’’ in the lively streets, all the while making sure of buying souvenirs on your way out.
