Er Rizk Mosque

Just below the citadel, on the way into town, is the Er Rizk Mosque, which dates back to the 14th century and has a beautiful minaret (topped by a stork's nest) that has intricate stone carvings on its exterior.

Zeynelbey Türbesi

Across the river from the citadel is another spot worth visiting, Zeynelbey Türbesi, a mausoleum built for a prince who died in battle in 1473. The stylized structure has an onion-dome top and is decorated with still-vivid turquoise-color tiles set in calligraphy-like geometric patterns, more reminiscent of Iran and Central Asia than Turkey.
