This is a majestic mosque, situated right in the middle of the city. It is the oldest mosque of Gaziantep and is well maintained when you hold that thought in your mind. But what is more special about this mosque is that its origins are mysterious. Nobody actually knows who built. There are rumours that have spanned for centuries. Whoever built it, built it well. This building spells the Gaziantep culture. Both the outside and inside of this structure is interesting. Highlights include:

• Bullet traces on the Minaret, from the time of the French Occupation
• The crown door and the mirhab
• Construction in White Black stone
• Carved stone balustrades

• Bus: OtobusDuragi@KozanliMh.

• Gozde Pide Lahmacun
• Meshur Paca
• Feyzo Ciger
