architecturalphotography ~ Istanbul YILDIZ MOSQUE|

This is my entry for #architecturalphotography contest...

#ENGLISH VERSION

The Yıldız Hamidiye Mosque, found among the magnificent historical monuments of Istanbul, reminiscent of the Great Ottoman Empire, is located in the district of Beşiktaş. Construction date is between 1884-1886. This magnificent mabed was built by Sarkis Balyan, the architect of Dolmabahçe Palace, another magnificent historical monument of Istanbul. The Yıldız Mosque was built by Sultan Abdulhamid II. Sultan Abdulhamid gave importance to this mosque. But It has features that do not reflect Ottoman architecture. The dome in the middle of the mosque has lines and figures covered with blue color produced with special technique. Looking at it carefully, it has a unique look that resembles a lot of bright stars and sky. There is a bohemian chandelier made from unique crystals extending from the center of the mosque to the floor of the mosque. Another remarkable detail is "the mihrap", right in the middle of the glass. High engineering and architectural aesthetics attract attention despite the tarihe of construction. The mihrab is made of white embroidered and gilded marble. The mosque, which was repaired in 1900, did not open for long periods of time. Today, after the last renovation, worship was opened. If you come to Istanbul, it is absolutely necessary to visit this unique work.
