Suleymaniye Mosque +

Built on a flat land, the mosque is located in a courtyard surrounded by walls. Although the rectangular planned building was built with smooth cut stone, brick masonry is seen in some parts. The façades of the mosque are divided into three parts as body wall, tromp floor and pulley floor. The hexagonal pulley has eight windows with round arches. There are three windows in the lower row of the qibla facade, two windows in the upper row and one window in the trumpet floor.

On the southwest façade, three windows were opened in the lower row, two in the upper row and one in the tromp floor. The same application is also seen on the northeast façade, but the lower window at the north end of the façade is arranged as a door. It has a pointed arch with marble jambs and a flat arch. The lower windows with marble jambs and iron bars have pointed arched pediments. Other windows have reveals and pointed arches. There is a minaret in the north corner of the mosque. The facades of the five-sided pedestal are animated with pointed arched niches formed by mouldings. The arch seats are coloured with red stones. The minaret door is provided through a pointed arched opening. The lug part is narrowed with prismatic triangles.

The body of the minaret was destroyed. The last congregation place of the mosque has not survived to the present day. The three-eyed last congregation was covered by three domes sitting on pointed arches. There is a lower window on each side of the facade. Unlike the others, pointed arches with colored stone braids were used on the pediments of these windows. The crown door protruding from the façade is made of cut stone. There are small niches facing each other in the door niche with muqarnas mullions framed by moldings, also with muqarnas mullions. The doorway has a flat arch with marble jambs and rollers. In the square-planned harim, the dome is crossed by oyster-shaped trumpets. The semicircular mihrab has a clam shell shaped mihrab. The wooden women's cloister to the north of the harim is not original. There is a simple marble pulpit to the right of the mihrab. To the left of the mihrab is a small niche used as a shelf.
