Its worth a visit, but first dress properly - you have to cover your shoulders and knees to enter the mosque, just like other sacred buildings and churches everywhere. it has a beautiful courtyard with a fountain and a shade tree, and there is also a small bookstore next to it. Opposite is a cultural center with a school and a museum, once a madrasah.It is part of Baščaršija, where it is essential to sit down for a Bosnian coffee, eat čevapčiče or burek (pie, cheese cakeand treat yourself to baklava, the base of which is thinly stretched dough, butter, honey and nuts, my favorites are pistachios, pine nuts and sesame. If you add sweetened orange juice to it, its absolutely perfect.Persimmons, roses, halva, rahatlokum are also known, but for me personally, baklava is the best.

Do I really need to say something about this place? By far the most unique place in the whole Sarajevo. All the ancient ottoman area is simply stunning. You can walk around this tiny streets and just when you expect to turn the corner into another tiny street the square with the mosque pops out. Beautiful

Beautiful mosque. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to enter it, because the visiting hours stated by the door of the mosque and at the entrance differ. I was unlucky to look at the „wrong” tourist information.

Built in the 16th century, it is the largest historical mosque in Bosnia and Herzegovina and one of the most representative Ottoman structures in the Balkans. Being the central Sarajevos mosque since the days of its construction, today it also serves as the main congregational mosque of the Islamic Community of Bosnia and Herzegovina. It is located in the Baščaršija neighborhood in the Stari Grad municipality and, being one of the main architectural monuments in the town, is regularly visited by tourists.

Its worth going inside this mosque to view the beautiful ceiling. The is a courtyard outside with traditional Muslim wash-house as well as mausoleum and lunar clock tower which establishes the correct time for prayer.

Really fascinating place.I personally dont believe in any sort of God, but I think that anyone must have respect both in the approach then in the "dress code" but it worth it.

What a beautiful Mosque, you can see the influence of the Ottoman rule in this country when you visit the mosques, from architecture to the way people dress. The water fountain in the courtyard to perform ablution is also very pretty.

Very pleasant, historic mosque complex. The mosque itself can be visited. The interior is bright and airy and elaborately decorated.The complex also has a small cemetery, historic ablution fountain and 2 mausoleums. The first and still free public toilet is just outside the complex.As of this writing, the entry fee is 3KM or 5KM for a combo ticket (mosque + school or library)If this review was helpful, please click Like!

Its the finest example of Ottoman Islamic architecture on the Balkan Peninsula. The original mosque was built in 1530 but was destroyed in 1697, and restored in 1762, and destroyed again in 1879. The last reconstruction was in 1886, but during the last war 1992-1995, it was damaged again, but most of its oriental design survived unscathed. It is the main mosque in the city

Gorgeous mosque, worth a visit regardless of your beliefs. Tourist friendly, but, come ON people, have some respect! Women, wear long pants/skirt and men no tank tops. Bring a scarf or shawl if you want to enter or borrow one from outside. I saw some pretty rude looking people wandering around inside.
