Van Great Mosque in Eski Van

The apple of the eye of the city of Van?

Our mosques are beautiful and we care about our mosques, but as we give importance to our mosques, we should also give due importance to the education of the mosque community. Some imams themselves know the catechism, they think they know everything in their community, but unfortunately the community does not know everything. If we start with the smallest, sometimes people make ablution as soon as they come out of the toilet, what is istinja? They do not know, However, as soon as you get out of the toilet, you have to wait for at least 5 minutes plus the second thing is that the ranks of the congregation are not frequent, you do not see that the imam is straight up to the ranks of the congregation as soon as the prayer is finished, starting the prayer can be counted as many shortcomings like this plus 3 something, mosques where social problems of the congregation are talked or talked about. While it should have been a gathering place, today it has become only a place of prayer, when the time prayer is broken Especially in summer, mosques are locked and it is almost like pray and leave immediately. A warm environment should be provided in the mosques, and the interest and relevance of the community should be increased. is

When we went to the Great Mosque door wall. If we wanted to see the mosque, just look at the outside and back to stay zotunda remained. Boyle wished to worship a historical mosque, but did not open for a touristic view @srkntemiz

It is a very large mosque. The fountain and toilet are located on the ground floor.

Because the building is in ruins, but no restoration work has been done.

It is interesting that even if such valuable structures are not destroyed, they are left forgotten. We are consoled for the best of your jeans

It is located in the old Van region. Most of the building has been destroyed. There are many buildings in ruins around it. Some of the buildings have begun to be restored. I hope the Ulu Mosque is taken under protection before it is destroyed further.
