Editor's Note
This mosque, in Akça (Fidi) Village a few kilometers from the city center to the west, is one of the finest and richest surviving examples not only of this region's wooden mosques but of those throughout Anatolia. Datings on the copper candlesticks indicate that repairs were carried out in 1688 by a man named Ömer Paşa associated with that period. Plain in appearance from the outside, the mosque is enclosed on three sides by a row of arcades and surrounded by a stone-built courtyard wall. The round-arched, brick-built, eaved doorway on its north side is the main portal.
