Istanbul is famous for its Mosques and Ottoman Architecture. As the capital of the Ottoman Empire since 1453 and the largest city of Turkey, Istanbul is home to over 3000 mosques. This makes it overwhelming to decide which ones to visit, but here are 5 of the most important mosques to see based on their architectural character and historical context. Begin with the Sehzade Mosque, which was commissioned by Sultan Suleyman in the memory of his eldest son by Hurrem, Prince Mehmet. From there, you will walk to the outstanding Suleymaniye Mosque, built by the famous Ottoman Architect Sinan for Sultan Suleyman The Magnificent. You will continue to the Nuruosmaniye Mosque, which is considered one of the finest examples of mosques in Ottoman Baroque style. The next stop will be the Sultanahmet (The Blue Mosque). It is famous for its beautiful blue tile work ornamenting its interior walls. The last stop will be Rüstem Pasha Mosque, in Fatih.
