Pro tips to help you make a pick

The Blue Mosque is a culturally rich landmark that draws millions annually. Though access is free, invest in guided tours, especially those with skip-the-line access. With them, you can bypass the long queues and delve into the fascinating legends and intricate architectural details of the mosque.

The call to prayer or adhan at the Blue Mosque is mesmerizing to listen. It resounds and creates an incredibly spiritual atmosphere. Though the Mosque itself is closed during this time, wait around to bless your ears with this beautiful adhan.

The Mosque’s stained glass windows are artworks that demand appreciation. Visit during the golden hours to catch the colorful play of lights filtering in through these windows, enhancing the aesthetic appeal of the Mosque.

The Blue Mosque is a functioning mosque. Be respectful in your conduct inside, maintain silence, do not engage in any activities that might disturb the worshippers, dress modestly, and do not lean on the walls or touch items.

The Mosque is closed for about 90 minutes during prayer times. Check the timings (which can change constantly) before you plan your visit.

About Blue Mosque

Sultan Ahmed Mosque, popularly called the Blue Mosque, after the 20,000 bluish Iznik tiles that adorn its interiors, has been drawing the faithful since the 17th century. Visit the mosque to experience its spiritual atmosphere and witness the incredible craftsmanship of the Ottomans. 


AddressBinbirdirek, At Meydanı Cd No:10, 34122 Fatih/İstanbul, Türkiye
Also known asBlue Mosque
Year opened1617
Founded bySedefkar Mehmed Agha
Visitors per year4500000

Did you know?

An interesting legend surrounds the unusual six minarets of the Mosque. Sultan Ahmed wanted them in gold, but the architect misheard it as six, given the words in Turkish for both sound similar. Since only the Prophet’s Mosque in Mecca had six minarets, it is believed that the Sultan avoided controversy by commissioning a 7th minaret in the Mecca Mosque, to maintain its supremacy.

The Blue Mosque gets its popular name from the beautiful blue Iznik tiles that adorn its ceiling. The tiles come from Iznik in Turkey famous for its pottery. Handpainted with floral motifs and incredible calligraphy, these 20,000 blue tiles make the interiors an absolutely stunning sight.

A teenage sultan, Ahmed, wanted his legacy to shine in the Ottoman narrative; the chances of which were slim given his numerous military defeats. The Blue Mosque was his trump card and he was resolved to finish it despite a declining social situation and much opposition. He even took part in the construction of the Mosque on the first day.

The Mosque's construction was controversial, as it stands on what used to be the Byzantine Hippodrome and entailed the demolition of Ottoman ministers' palaces. It was also funded by the treasury unlike the usual war spoils and this irked many, especially as famines were demoralizing the state. Placing the Mosque opposite the Hagia Sophia and outshining it, was also read as a power move.

The Blue Mosque was painstakingly constructed in 7 years under the vision of architect Mehmed Aga. The mosque has one central dome and eight half domes that cascade from it, offering a unique exterior. The construction of the central dome is a testament to the engineering genius of the Ottomans. The mosque consists of a prayer hall and a courtyard of equal proportions.

Why visit Blue Mosque?

Architectural grandeur

The Blue Mosque is a sight for sore eyes. The interiors impress with the bluish hue of the 20,000 Iznik tiles, and splendidly crafted stained glass windows. The cascading domes and six minarets pierce the Istanbul skyline and stand as a testament to the incredible engineering feats and artistic vision of the Ottomans. 

Spiritual atmosphere

A functional mosque where thousands gather to seek solace, the Blue Mosque maintains a serene atmosphere that invites people for moments of quiet contemplation. This spiritual aura is hard to miss the moment you step in.

Historical significance

The Blue Mosque has stood tall for more than 400 years and tells the tale of the incredible vision, Islamic artistry, and wealth of the Ottomans. Seek the Blue Mosque for a great history lesson on the cultural heritage of the Ottoman Empire.

The ease of purchasing tickets online, the faster admission process, and the audio guide on my cell phone, to start with. The girls at the entrance are really wonderful, they are very helpful. Upon entering, the lighting of the cistern makes the work stand out. The path marked above the water allows you to admire the entire structure. Although there were many people, you could look around and stop freely. It is a very interesting experience to also understand a little history and stop to admire the architecture.

Check points, free small audio guides. But the walky-talkie was bad, we heard a lot of extra noise on the background. In information pdf the information about shoeless entry to buildings is missing. Otherwise all was really great. We enjoyed the tour and it was nice to see that part of city. Tour guide was nice.

Being able to skip the ticket line was very good. Sadly, the audio guides just didn't work on either of the devices we had, despite them saying they had been downloaded. We had one excellent guide but one who just seemed bored!

We had the combo guided tour with Alex. It was very easy to find the place and very well organised! We learnt so many things and we really enjoyed it! The group was small, and it was genuinely a very nice experience. I would definitely recommend it, Alex is funny, passionate about history, very knowledgeable and has a wonderful way to explain things. The tour lasted for 3 hours and we thought it was enough time to explore, nothing felt rushed and it was a very very lovely day. Thank you Alex!
