Süleymaniye Mosque & Kuru Fasulye Row

Fatih · Mosque & bean-stew lane · Free

I visit the mosque for ten minutes and the bean row for an hour. This is the honest way to see a monument — quietly, then eat what the neighbourhood eats beside it.

Sinan's greatest mosque, and the lane of kuru fasulye houses right beside it that have fed worshippers and students white-bean stew for generations.
