New Mosque, Ottoman imperial mosque in Eminönü, Turkey.
The New Mosque presents a central dome reaching 36 meters high, supported by four columns and illuminated through 24 windows that filter sunlight.
Construction began in 1597 under Safiye Sultan's patronage, but political changes and financial difficulties led to a 57-year pause until completion in 1663.
The mosque incorporates traditional Ottoman architectural elements with marble columns, calligraphic plates, and Iznik tiles decorating its interior spaces.
Located near the Galata Bridge and Spice Bazaar, the mosque opens daily from 9 AM to 6 PM with temporary closures during prayer times.
The mosque complex includes seventeen tombs of Ottoman royal family members and connects directly to the Egyptian Spice Bazaar through its adjacent structures.
