On the picture: A glimpse of the three buildings that constitute the ‘Külliye’ established by Kemer Ali Paşa in 1572. These are: the mosque (to the right; worshippers are leaving it after a common prayer), the türbe (tomb, to the left, where he is buried together with his wife and a son) and the hamam (public bath, in the center, whose grey lead covered domes crop up behind the brick roof tiles of the Ebu Şems Hanegahı (the derwish hospice).

Külliye, deriving from the Arabic word "kull" (meaning the whole, all) is a term which designates a complex of buildings, centered around a mosque and managed within a single institution, often based on a vakıf (foundation). Except for the mosque, it can be composed of a medrese (school), a darüşşifa (hospital), kitchens for the poor, bakery, hammam, library, arasta (shops), caravanserai and other buildings for various benevolent services for the community. Often the türbe of the initiator will be present too.
The tradition of külliye is particularly marked in Turkish architecture, particularly Ottoman Empire.
