See our latest inexpensive accommodatios within close distance of the Blue Mosque in Sultan Ahmed area in Istanbul Turkey. The Sultan Ahmed is also called the Blue Mosque (Sultanahmet Camii or Sultanahmet Mosque) because of the blue tiles adorning the walls of its interior.
The Sultan Ahmed Mosque is one of the two mosques in Turkey that has six minarets, the other is in Adana. When the number of minarets was revealed, the Sultan was criticized for presumption, since this was, at the time, the same number as at the mosque of the Ka’aba in Mecca. He overcame this problem by paying for a seventh minaret at the Mecca mosque.
This historical mosque is built between 1609 and 1616 by architect Mehmet Aga. It is a famous landmark and tourist attraction in the city of Istanbul.
