There is a rumor that the story of this mosque, which is located in Tophane Square and was built by Mimar Sinan for the Kaptan-\u0131 Derya K\u0131l\u0131\u00e7 Ali Pasa in 1581.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Buuuuuut! There is more! Did you know that Cervantes worked in the process of the build? What!! Why was Cervantes in Turkey? In 1575, he escaped to Italy from Spain, because he committed a crime. He lost one arm in war between the Ottoman Empire and Italy. He was taken to “North Africa” after being captured in Italy by the Ottoman Empire. After that, he worked in the K\u0131l\u0131\u00e7 Ali Pa\u015fa Mosque’s building process as a worker. (According to Sunay Ak\u0131n’s book, “Ay H\u0131rs\u0131z\u0131” (means Moon Thief)<\/p>\n\n\n\n Notes: My family’s office is in Karak\u00f6y, so we usually see the mosque on the way. My dad told me this story above about Cervantes, while we were passing by this mosque. Which he listened from Sunay Ak\u0131n. Here are some pictures of the mosque<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Hi, today I am going to tell you about K\u0131l\u0131\u00e7 Ali Pa\u015fa MosqueSo let us get started.

And I found this story out in the book that I told you earlier. But, there are some historians like Emrah Safa G\u00fcrkan who say that, they don’t agree to this. BTW, Cervantes was released in 1580. When he came back to Spain, he wrote Don Quixote.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/keremgurevin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/28372228.jpg\")
