The interior of the Mosque of Süleyman the Magnificent. Süleyman presided over the Golden Age of Ottoman history (1520-1566). With pastel colors, simple stained-glass windows, and foundation pillars that fade into the side walls, the mosque conveys airiness and tranquility. Being farther from the old town center, it also draws fewer tourists.
