  • This Mosque was typical of most in the area but quite old. Be sure to view the courtyard and go inside to see the actual place of worship.

  • I loved this Grand mosque. You will see diverse religious influences on the architecture of the mosque over time. Worth to visit.
  • beautiful mosque with a lot of history (used to be a church). We ran into a tour guide who explained what all the carvings on the walls mean. Look out for lion heads, carvings of rivers, vines... definitely worth visiting to see the beautifully carved stone columns
  • A very historical and interesting place, it keep attracting you to visit again and again. I've spent two times morning prayer here, in this mosque they practice Shafi'i school of thought. Will be back for more
  • Ulu Cami, Grand Mosque of Diyarbakır is the former St. Thomas Christian Church, one of the oldest churches in history. The mosque is considered by some to be the fifth holiest site in Islam. The Great Mosque of Diyarbakir is the oldest and one of the most significant mosques in Mesopotamia. Every corner has a different architectural design. The columns on the second floor have a different design. It is phenomenal.
  • Grand mosque is a major historical landmark of diyarbakır. Absolutely amazing place to visit.
