Diyarbakır Ulu Cami 2784

view map

Some details on the building with the main entrance at the side of the courtyard. Probably "spoils" (spolia) from earlier roman buildings, maybe from the church that originally stood here, were used extensively.

But as can be seen in a curious mixture Arabic writing was used as further ornamentation.
