Tire, city of mosques in Turkey, takes visitors back in time with special architecture

Notable for its buildings exhibiting examples of interaction between different cultures, the district was previously home to the Hittite, Phrygian, Lydian, Persian, Roman and Byzantine states. However, it came under the domination of Turks with the Aydınoğulları principality in the 13th century and was seized by in 1426, gaining many works of city life under the rule of the Muslims. Among the buildings constructed by the Muslim rulers, their mosques particularly stand out.
