Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This is a 2116 m2 mosque from the 15th century. It was started by Sultan Emir Suleyman, finished by Sultan Celebi Mehmet. It is 100 meters from Selimiye. Another must see after Selimiye. It is considerably quiet. Go inside, sit somewhere and talk to god in whatever language and religion you prefer. You will feel you can reach.

When I tour a city, historical mosques are a must-do...
On our trip to Edirne, we first visited the Old Mosque. We walked with the kids both outside and inside and prayed. It’s already about 300 meters below Selimiye. It''s centrally located.

Edirne, just two and half hours drive west of Istanbul, was the former Ottoman Turkish capital. Despite being an easy day trip from Istanbul, this relaxed town has surprisingly
few tourists.
Eski Camii or Old Mosque, as it is more commonly known, though the smallest of the 3 mosques we visited, was our highlight of the Edirne trip. It was built during the early part of the 15th century of cut stone and brick. The two most striking and unique features of this mosque, which made it our highlight are the -
1. red and white voussoirs on the double arches, similar to La Mezquita in Cordoba
2. fascinatingly large works of Arabic calligraphy on the pillars and interior walls, dating back from the second half of the 19th century.
Definitely worth a visit while visiting Edirne

Outside it is not as impressive as the nearby Sinan masterpiece. Yet the interior is one of the most interesting in Turkey, Old Ottoman mosque architecture involved multiple columns than supported domes, these columns are decorated with beautiful calligraphy in three different styles

Right in the center of the city, this is a must-see in Edirne. The painting in the domes is very traditional but in the arches it looks very modern. Kind of a strange mix, but it works. From a very different period than the Selimye mosque.

Eski Camii ( Old Camii) also known as Ulu Camii, is the first Imperial building that was built by Ottoman Sultans. Commissioned by Sultan I. Suleyman, the construction started in 1403 and completed by Sultan I. Mehmet in 1414. Although it has went through several renovations through centuries the multi domed , Classical era mosque has survived in its original form to this date.
The mosque'sinterior walls has spectacular calligraphy, has two minarets one with one the other with two balconies.
The mosque is located in the historic part of Edirne in the city center. for visiting you should watch out for off prayer hours, which is three times at the period where you can visit at day lite and lasts about half an hour ( longer on friday noon mass). Head scarf for ladies and no bare arms or shorts are allowed. You have to take your shoes off yet there are shelves insidewhere you can put them.
