Description
This public facility, located across from Gate 1 of the Grand Bazaar, allows people to freshen up. As a matter of fact it is part of the Nuruosmaniye Camii (mosque), since this mosque has no ablution fountain. The mosque was built between 1748-1755 in Ottoman Baroque style, It was begun under the reign of Sultan Mahmut I and completed under his brother and successor Sultan Osman III..

There are times when I'd love to rinse my feet off even if I had no intention of going into a mosque! Walking around can be such a hot and tired thing to do. This looks quite refreshing!
Most of the people who used that didn't go into the mosque!
wonderful shot of how p-people live in differ parts of the world
Nice idea for the feet and a great photo Sig! I could have used something like this when I made it back up to the rim of the Grand Canyon!
