Selimiye Mosque

Quite a sizeable mosque and well worth the visit. Driving from Sofia, Bulgaria to Istanbul this was a perfect area to stop and explore overnight. Both the mosque and grounds were lovely. There is a sizable markets the bottom side of the mosque. Paid parking available nearby.

It was perfect to see Mimar Sinan's master piece. Right next to the mosque, there is a big parking lot which you can keep your car safely and not expensive. Also from mosque garden there is direct entrance to old bazaar which is under the mosque. Also you can walk most of the other touristic places and nice restaurants. Also next-door to parking there is factory store for famous Kavala Almond cookiesud83cudf6aud83cudf6a

A very nice town with smell of history

Really beautiful. Children playing inside, people praying, torusists taking photos. It accommodates everyone.

Unique masterpiece by the grand architect Sinan whom legends say might be the Bulgarian Master Manol. 3rd biggest mosque. Full of history and vibrant culture and colours. A definite must see in Edirne (Odrin).
