A courtyard on the west side of this structure has an iron chain suspended from its entrance to force anyone who enters on horseback to bow their head. Parts of this structure inspired by fauna include four pillars nicknamed “elephant feet” and chandeliers that, to ward off nesting spiders, contained ostrich eggs. This structure’s architect allegedly misheard the adjective “gold” as “six” when receiving directions for the design of its towers, which was controversial since only one other such structure had that many towers. The entire ceramics industry of Iznik was dedicated towards this structure, which a teenage monarch built in the 1610s next to the Hippodrome to surpass the beauty of the Hagia Sophia. For 10 points, what place of worship in Istanbul is nicknamed for the color of its tiles? ■END■
