Designed by Turkey's Zeynep Fadilloglu, who is believed to be the first female architect to specialise in mosques, the mosque features Persian and Turkish tile and enamel work in shades of blue and gold, proffering a stark contrast to the surrounding buildings. With decor inspired by the Dolmabahce Palace in Istanbul, the minaret, dome, and prayer niche (mihrab), draw from famous mosques across the Muslim world. Next to the mosque, one can see the unmistakable pigeon towers-oblong structures with holes and perches for pigeons.
