Tbilisi mosque, Mosque at foot of Narikala Fortress in Old Tbilisi, Georgia

The mosque features an octagonal minaret at its entrance and displays a blend of neo-Gothic and Islamic architectural elements on its brick structure.

Initially constructed by Ottomans between 1723 and 1735, the mosque underwent reconstruction from 1846 to 1851 under architect Giovanni Scudieri's direction.

The mosque functions as a shared prayer space for both Sunni and Shia Muslims, representing religious tolerance in the heart of Georgia's capital.

Located at the end of Botanical Street, this religious building welcomes visitors who want to observe its detailed mosaic decorations and architecture.

Until 1951, a black curtain divided the interior space between Sunni and Shia worshippers, but now all believers pray together without separation.
