Introduction
The Alaeddin Mosque is located on the top of Alaeddin Hill in the city center of Konya. It was ordered to be built in the 13th century by Alaeddin Keykubad I, the Seljuk Sultan of Rum, with Konya as the capital. The mosque is large in size and has a simple architectural style, with some areas such as the minbar (pulpit) and mihrab (prayer niche) decorated with glazed tiles. There are also two mausoleums outside the mosque for the Seljuk sultans and their families. Underneath the mosque, there are the remains of the Seljuk palace, commonly known as the "Alaeddin Pavilion".
