The Yeni Cami also known as the New Mosque, is one of Istanbul’s iconic landmarks. Construction of the mosque began in 1597 under the order of Sultan Safiye, the mother of Sultan Mehmed III. However, the project faced numerous delays and was not completed until 1665 during the reign of Sultan Mehmed IV, taking nearly 68 years to finish. **Architectural Details:** - **Area:** The mosque covers an extensive area, with the main prayer hall measuring around 41 x 44 meters. - **Dome Height:** The central dome reaches a height of approximately 36 meters. - **Number of Domes:** The mosque features one large central dome flanked by several semi-domes, forming a cascading effect that is characteristic of Ottoman architecture. - **Minarets:** Yeni Cami has two minarets, each with three balconies, which are typical of imperial mosques in Istanbul. **Historical Significance:** Yeni Cami is not just a place of worship; it also holds historical and cultural significance, being closely associated with the Spice Bazaar (Mısır Çarşısı) next to it. The complex, known as a "külliye," originally included a hospital, primary school, public baths, and a market. This mosque stands as a testament to the architectural and cultural development of Istanbul during the Ottoman era, showcasing the grandeur and intricate details that are hallmarks of the period.
