BURSA
The entry
portal is crowned with semi-umbrella vault and has muqarnas niches above marble
seats on both side of entrance.
Iznik tiles with flower patterns in blue, white
and yellow adorn the portal.
The Green Tomb is richly decorated with
scriptures and flower designs painted in yellow, white and blue glazed tiles.
The lower section of walls is lined with blue-green tiles, also used in tympana
of windows on the interior.
The muqarnas niche of mihrab on the qibla wall is
also set in a large frame of ornamental tilework: the mosaic of tiles inside
the niche depicts a garden of roses, carnations and hyacinths.
The chandelier
and the colored glass windows are later additions.
