Altre informazioni:
Ilyas Bey Mosque close by the ruined, ancient city of Miletos or Milet. Built in 1403 by a local ruler who named the mosque after himself. The building has been cleaned and restored and probably looks much like it was 600 years ago. It is a very impressive building, the dome is 14 metre in diameter and is built with individual bricks. Please look at my range of photographs that show the building in 2005 and again in 2012. Originally the mosque was a religious education institution and also a bath building or Hammam. Within the site is a villa and there is an example of the underfloor heating built originally by Romans. My photographs cover a lot of the site as well as views of the mosque. Around the mosque was a graveyard that was in use within the last 50 years.
