    SMALL MOSQUE IN BEAUTIFUL GROUNDS

    This small mosque is set in beautiful well kept grounds and has a huge steeple and large dome that can be seen from a distance. Unfortunately there is nothing inside to see but is worth the visit just for it's exterior.

    Tons of tombstones, but closed inside...

    Although it looks quite beautiful outside, with its silver dome and minarets, unfortunately it was closed and we couldn't get inside. I had read that the former church floor had been made with tombstones, however now it has a carpet, so you can't see. The...More

    Mosque in a beautiful garden

    We could not get in, but the cemetery and the garden with the well is beautiful. It was not crowded, we met only one or two locals there, so a it is perfect resting place on a hot summer day.

    Nice outside

    Walked past this as part of the blue line walking tour and it looked very attractive and peaceful but the gates were locked so I can't comment on the interior. It's a good idea to wear trousers if you want to visit the mosques and...More

    Pretty area

    Another pretty feature of Lefkosa where one can offer a silent prayer without fear of being intrusive.

    Beautiful example of architecture

    The Arabahmet Mosque is located in the Turkish part of Nicosia, in the area with the same name. The classical Ottoman architecture is present here, along with some important Ottoman Pashas who are buried in its garden. Definitely worth a stop if you're around.
