The Ivaz Efendi Mosque, attributed to Sinan but there is no evidence for this. I wanted to take some pictures inside, if only for the marvellous Iznik decorations. But a man took it upon him to show me on the rules for proper conduct that picture taking was forbidden, and when I wanted to ignore this, because I thought the measure was stupid, physically prevented me from trying. Before blood would flow I gave in.
