Fodor's Expert Review Zeynelbey Türbesi

Hasankeyf

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.
