SULTAN AHMET MOSQUE
GENERAL
These were the first questions and words that spilled from the mouth of the writer and poet Cafer Çelebin who had followed the construction step by step as a close relative of the architect when the mosque was finished and the doors opened to the world.
‘What is this bright light? And what is this beautiful style?
After all, from the four corners of the earth and from all religions of the world who came to visit with believers who run for centuries, from Beyazıt, to those who admired the subtle and highly refined lineage that this building brought to the skyline of Istanbul upon arrival from the sea, The feelings that they have fallen into and fallen into the main space from one of the gates, and this time their admiration turns into astonishment. When people first look at their surroundings, their minds glow through the giant columns, each one of them springing up to the fancy walls and then to the arches and half-domes, which are stacked on top of one another, and to a dome that is not much more imposing on them all, With emotions and fresh, fresh, colorful, colored with a whole new world. This is a camel of Sultanahmet rising in the middle of old Istanbul, or rather on the edge of the historical half island facing the sea. Blue mosque with a place name given by strangers.
Thin taste and a new mosque concept conveyed to the art of Istanbul by his hands. It is a period and a style where Turkish-Islamic architecture has opened its wings to the back. The tale of the tulip commuter which will be a full century after itself, the premonitioner of both the majestic and adorable, the full temple, the creepy but vast garden for the person, the interior warming, the interior warming, the ornamented as an oriental palace; Hele is decorated with a world of patterns in which all the shades of a refined paint are scattered, which we can not decide together, in a rich history, with gold chains hanging with solid emerald lamps, the two worlds meeting this handed glass. The flat walls are covered with tiles and the surfaces rotating and twisting on them are embroidered with a pen. Eventually a brilliant space emerged. It is a strange feeling to visit the man, on the one hand, the imposing pillars, especially the dome on the hill, telling the whole innocence of a mabed with the idea of ??an eternal god, and the immortality of being alone with the power of creating the truth. Everyday life is out, hele is a totally different environment in which modern life and today’s city where the silence of the human being contradicts the creativity, and where the quietness of the traffic joys and the tranquility of the traffic jam. The person is nearly stripped naked and confronted with a creepy loneliness as if he had reached a man of his own. Because everything is so majestic, so great for man, it is so quiet, but it is thought-provoking and inviting beyond its intelligent and cognitive physiology. Your family business is your problem Your enthusiasm is your love and you do not like your money and your property is so far away from you so far that even the crowds that are walking around will be lost in this place, but as soon as the first minutes of filling in the churrtiler are working, It starts to warm up. If you sit at the same place to pray for the prayer and begin to watch the surroundings with a more full and full feeling, this mabe is for the kemaline erysini to delight in all the sweetness given to this martial, this time with all the joy of a human life again beauty measures and value judgments And it starts to flood. How the windows of these windows that surround the real inner horizon are woven with the burning colors and how the Chinese embracing the walls are embellished like a spring garden of this world with embroidered embroideries climbing up to these domes are so painted with enthusiasm in the embellishment And sprinkled. Cloud cloud rosette rosette on the walls until this, the Ottomans love the lilies, the hyacinths can not be found in a temple painted lepidoptera and cloaks. In this vital place, both the worship, the glory, the closeness, the side by side, it is deep inside of the blue master’s master architect.
