Sinan built this mosque for Süleyman's beloved daughter Mihrimah, perching it dramatically atop the old city walls at the Edirne Gate. Legend says Sinan was secretly in love with the princess — true or not, the light-filled interior with its delicate stained glass feels like an architect pouring his heart into stone. The exterior view from the ancient walls is unforgettable.
