The Selimiye mosque complex, built at Edirne 1569-75. Sinan Pasha, the royal architect, was inspired by the 1000 year old cathedral church of St. Hagia Sophia in Istanbul. He felt that it was an affront to Islam that the emperor Justinian’s architects had been able to span with a dome a greater area than Ottoman architects had been able to achieve. With the Selimiye he succeeded in surpassing the Hagia Sophia.

Rumelihisarı (Rumelian Castle) is a fortress located in the Sarıyer district of Istanbul, Turkey, on a hill at the European side of the Bosporus. It gives the name of the quarter around it. It was built by the Ottoman Sultan Mehmed II between 1451 and 1452, before he conquered Constantinople. The three great towers were named after three of Mehmed II's viziers, Sadrazam Çandarlı Halil Pasha, who built the big tower next to the gate, Zağanos Pasha, who built the south tower, and Sarıca Pasha, who built the north tower.
