Constructed in the 17th century under the skilled craftsmanship of Sedefkar Mehmet Aga, this majestic structure was commissioned by Sultan Ahmet I.

Distinguished as a singular spectacle, it was unparalleled with its six minarets, a rarity in its time. Nestled in the enchanting Sultanahmet neighborhood within the Fatih district, gracing the Sultanahmet Square, the Blue Mosque stands as a splendid testament to Turkish and Islamic architectural grandeur. A pilgrimage for countless visitors, it exemplifies harmonious design, precise proportion, and timeless elegance.
