Join us for a tour of the new Taksim Mosque, located in the heart of Istanbul's Taksim Square. After years of court battles, public debate, and protests, the imposing Art Deco Style Mosque has finally been inaugurated by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Designed by Belgium-Turkish Architect Şefik Birkiye, who also designed Erdogan's Presidential Palace in Ankara, the mosque is a beautiful blend of Ottoman and contemporary architecture, featuring a 30-meter (98-feet) high dome.
During our tour, we'll explore the intricate details of the mosque's design and learn about the significance of its location in the bustling Taksim Square. We'll also delve into the controversy surrounding the construction of the mosque and its impact on the surrounding community. Join us as we take a closer look at this iconic symbol of faith and architecture in Istanbul.
