The 'Turkish' mosque, detail

I can't find any information on this mosque so don't know its real name, but we passed it many times and thought it looked like an Ottoman building. Ironically, there was a very large tour group from Turkey there, Umrah pilgrims. It was nice to hear a language I could understand ;-).
