About Dzhumaya Mosque

Dzhumaya Mosque is situated in Plovdiv, Plovdiv Province, Bulgaria. Its Turkish name is Hudavendigar Camii or Cuma Camii. The mosque is situated in the focal point of Plovdiv and was worked in 1363– 1364 on the site of the Sveta Petka Tarnovska Cathedral Church after the success of Plovdiv by the Ottoman armed force. Amid the reign of Sultan Murad I in the fifteenth century the old building was decimated and supplanted by the cutting edge mosque. It was called Ulu Dzhumaya Mosque, or Main Friday Mosque. The mosque is huge, with nine arches and a 33 m × 27 m 108 ft × 89 ft petition corridor. There is a minaret at the upper east corner of the principle exterior.

Inside divider works of art date to the late eighteenth to mid nineteenth hundreds of years. The mosque was assaulted by a swarm portrayed as "several patriots, fascists and football hoodlums" in February 2014. 120 were "kept" after the assault and four got minor sentences. The Grand Mufti of Bulgaria, Mustafa Haci, portrayed the assault as a "massacre." Bulgaria's first working mosque, this unmissable Ottoman working amidst Plovdiv's pedestrianized shopping zone was initially worked in 1364. It was obliterated and reconstructed in the mid-fifteenth century. It is conceivable to enter dress humbly, however the inside doesn't coordinate to the mosque's terrific history and forcing 23m minaret.
