Ağa Cafer Pasha Mosque
The Ağa Cafer Pasha Mosque in Kyrenia is a striking example of Ottoman architecture, dating back to the late 16th century. Its hewn stone construction and impressive size make it a notable landmark in the area. What sets this mosque apart is its unique blend of traditional Cypriot vernacular style with Ottoman influences, evident in the lack of a minaret and the rectangular hall design. The pillared portico adorned with lattice and the three arches at the entrance add to the grandeur of the structure. Visitors can appreciate the historical and cultural significance of the mosque while also enjoying the surrounding neighborhood, complete with charming cafes, bars, and restaurants.
