One of some pictures taken to show the restoration works are almost finished. I saw some buildings on earlier occassionOne of some pictures from the west side of the platform on which the mosque stands, with view of nearby hills. I think it may have been the last time I could see those hills, as a shopping centre is being built, with a parking below, and also because the gecekondular, the simple houses on the hill, will probably have been destroyed. If the hills will be built up like other hills are already, with high-rising apartment blocks, the whole aspect will change a irreparably.
