Konak (Yalı) Mosque
Konak, İzmir
A small octagonal mosque beside the Clock Tower, notable for its tile-clad facades.
Its story
Konak Mosque was commissioned in 1755 by Ayşe Hanım and is also known as Yalı (Waterfront) Mosque because it once stood on the seashore. The exterior facades of the octagonal building are clad in Kütahya tiles. Despite its small size, together with the Clock Tower it is one of the most photographed buildings on Konak Square. With the redevelopment of the square, it now stands a little back from the shore.
