Cumaa Mosque, inspired by the Hüdavendigâr Mosque. Murad Hüdavendigâr constructed the<br />

mosque in 1425, which then later was demolished after the earthquake in 1785; the mosque<br />

was rebuilt by 1. Abdülhamid. Other important structures within the city are the mosque,<br />

madrasah, han, and hamam built by Beylerbeyi Gazi fiehabeddin Pafla. Unfortunately, the<br />

Imaret Mosque is the only structure left standing out of the many that he constructed.<br />

One of Eastern Europe’s oldest clock towers can also be found in Plovdiv, opposite the Imaret<br />

Mosque, on a hill called ‘Sahat Tepe’.<br />

There are three hills that stand, which make this city seem like an open-air museum, with<br />

traditional Turkish and Bulgarian homes unique in architecture. The city could actually<br />

be seen as an Ottoman-made town, in fact. This style of architecture that has wowed<br />

professionals all over, gained its own name as ‘Plovdiv Baroque Style’. The houses were<br />

restored in their original form and the historic designs also still remain. More than 150 of<br />

these houses were restored, which now operate as museums, galleries, studios, and restaurants.<br />

The wooden ceilings, large pane glass windows on every side of the house, and daunting<br />

charm present a feast for the eyes.<br />
