Summary

Description
English: Süleymaniye mosque was built just outside innercastle of Alanya in 1231 when the city was being reconstructed by Kayqubad I, the Seljuk Sultan of Rum. However the mosque was not in good condition in the following years and it was rebuilt by Kanuni Sultan Süleyman (Suleyman The Magnificient) in the 16th century during the Ottoman Era.

The building is made of rubble stones and it is square in shape.

It has a brick dome based on an octagonal frame. Fifteen little earthenware jars were placed in the part functioning as the hanger of the dome in order to ensure its acoustics. That quality is felt during religious practice, The final public place is found below three brick domes on a four-foot basis. The covers of doors and windows are fine examples of wood carving of the Ottoman.
