One of the oldest mosques in Romania and the only medieval monument of Mangalia. Dating from 1573, the mosque was built by Esma, daughter of Sultan Selim II (1566-74) and wife of grand vizier (greatest minister of the Sultan) Sokollu Mehmed Pasha. It is still used by the local Muslim community and located in the centre of town within a large garden that also contains Ottoman grave stones.
in the off season in springtime you get a very nice double room with exclusive Sea-View for less than €50. The breakfast there was great, a buffet with all-you-can-eat and drink. The hotel is near the city with nice restaurants and besides the old mosque from the 16th century.
