Ortakoy Mosque: the iconic mosque of Istanbul
One of Istanbul's most exquisite old mosques is the Ortakoy Mosque. The Ortakoy Mosque has a stunning view of the Bosphorus and is situated just in front of it. The Ortakoy Mosque offers its visitors some of the most picturesque photo possibilities. The Ortakoy Mosque and the Bosphorus Bridge are relatively close to one another because of the mosque's unique placement. One of Istanbul's most beautiful and ancient neighborhoods, Ortakoy, is home to the Ortakoy Mosque, which is situated in an open square. The mosque is a must-see because it is both historically significant and aesthetically pleasing.
In comparison to mosques in the old town, this mosque is relatively smaller. Its interior has large, lofty windows that allow light in and reflect the water's reflection. Despite the building's small size, the interior is spacious and open with large, high windows. Marble and porphyry were used to construct the mihrab and minbar.
The Ortakoy Mosque is fairly simple to reach. You can catch any bus headed toward Ortakoy, especially if you have your Unlimited Public Transportation Card with you. Other than that, it's up to you to donate to the Ortakoy Mosque when you arrive, there is no entrance fee. The mosque accepts donations only because it is a publically accessible religious structure. So, you can choose to pay however much or little as you wish.
