Bayezid II Mosque

The Bayezid II Mosque is an Ottoman-era place of worship located on Beyazıt Square in Istanbul. It is situated near the site of the ancient Forum of Theodosius. Travelers visit this site to see early Ottoman architecture and to experience a religious space within the historic center of the city.

Getting There

The mosque is located in the Fatih district, which is part of the historic city center. It is accessible via the T1 tram line, stopping at the Beyazıt station. From the central Sultanahmet area, it is a short tram ride or a 10 to 15-minute walk.
