Aqmescit Friday mosque, Central mosque in Simferopol, Ukraine
The mosque features four minarets reaching 58 meters in height and a central dome spanning 18 meters in diameter at an elevation of 28 meters.
The construction project began in 2015 after local Muslims spent two decades requesting permission to build a religious center at this particular location.
The building incorporates traditional Islamic geometric patterns along with specific Crimean Tatar ornamental designs throughout its interior and exterior surfaces.
The prayer halls accommodate 3000 worshippers, with separate spaces designated for 1500 men on the main floor and 900 women in the balcony area.
The mosque combines architectural elements from Ottoman structures with local Crimean influences, featuring tulip motifs and limestone materials sourced from regional quarries.
