After the ship docked, next to the famous Yeni Mosque, Yeni means "new", Yeni Mosque, also known as the New Mosque, the Sultan Empress Dowager, in the Eminonu district of Istanbul, Turkey. At the southern end of the Galata Bridge, it is on the edge of the Golden Horn. It is one of the most famous attractions in Istanbul. Although it is not called the new mosque, it is really not "new" and has a history of more than 400 years. Construction began in 1597, and it was completed in the middle of the storm. It even stopped work and was completed in 1663. In terms of layout, the Yeoni Mosque is similar to the Blue Mosque and the Suleymaniye Mosque. There is a huge vestibule with two towering towers on the side. The atrium has a beautiful spring, and a series of semi-dome surrounds a main dome. The interior of the wide dome, decorated with golden leaves, carved marble, and colorful Iznik tiles, makes the entire mosque gorgeous.
