Its a great place to see in the center of Sofia. Next to it you have the drinking fountains
The mosque Banya Bashi is situated in the center of Sofia, on Maria Luisa boulevard. The mosque was built in accordance with the trends in architecture in the 16th century. It was made of stone and bricks. Nowadays, a public worship with about 500, and during Bayram – with nearly 1,000 believers, is carried out every Friday in the mosque.
Sofia’s only working mosque was built in 1576 and is located at the very heart of the city. This delightful mosque is a typical monument of Ottoman architecture and its interior is quite spectacular. It’s certainly an eye-catching edifice, and the red-brick minaret makes a convenient landmark. Visitors are welcome outside prayer times if modestly dressed.
3 main religious temples are very closely located in Sofia - Sv.Nedyala Orthodox Church, Sofia Synagogue and Banya Bashi Mosque.
