The Beyazıt Paşa Mosque, built in 1414 on initiative of this Grand Vizir of sultan Mehmet I. The portico (on the north side) is covered by five small domes.

On the picture: Under the second and the fourth dome of the portico, these square structures can be seen. None of the consulted sources mentions them; they are probably the bases of small şadırvan-like fountains.
