Çifte Minareli Medrese

Çifte Minareli Medrese is an architectural monument of the late Seljuk period in the northeastern Turkish city of Erzurum. Built as a theological school a few years before 1265, it takes its name, meaning Twin Minaret Madrasa, from the two fluted minarets that crown the monumental façade.

It’s quite impressive from the front, but unfortunately my picture of it is too full of wires to post.
