Tokat Hatuniye Mosque

view map

This mosque from 1485 lies a bit hidden in a market region, I find it a bit better in architectural detail than the Ali Pasha mosque on the central square, though they are obviously related in style. It was built on order of Beyazit II, whose mosque in Amasya is among my all-time favorites. Stylistically very similar, unfortunately this one does not have the large “kulye” complex of medreses, hospital, soup kitchen and all that.
