Başdurak Mosque, Ottoman mosque in Kemeraltı, Turkey.

The Başdurak Mosque features a central dome supported by a square platform and includes a minaret on its western side.

Constructed in 1652 by Hacı Hüseyin, the mosque received documentation from the notable 17th-century traveler Evliya Çelebi during his visits.

The mosque maintains its role as a religious center while integrating commercial spaces at its base, connecting spiritual practices with daily community life.

The mosque stands in the heart of Izmir's market district, accessible through multiple public transportation options from the Konak area.

The building complex encompasses additional structures including a medrese, library, and a traditional public drinking fountain called sebil.
