The Shia Mosque, Tbilisi, Mosque in Old Tbilisi, Georgia
The brick mosque features arched windows along its walls and stands beneath Narikala Fortress at the end of Botanical Street in Tbilisi.
Built between 1723 and 1735 by Ottoman forces, the original Sunni mosque was destroyed by Persian armies in the 1740s and rebuilt from 1846 to 1851.
The mosque functions as the primary gathering place for both Sunni and Shia Muslim communities, who share the prayer space without physical division since 1996.
Visitors must follow appropriate dress codes and respect prayer schedules when exploring the mosque's architectural features and mosaic decorations.
The octagonal minaret at the entrance presents different visual perspectives depending on the viewing angle, making it a distinctive landmark in the old city.
