The Alaaddin Mosque or Yivli Minare Mosque (literally: "Fluted Minaret" Mosque), commonly also called Ulu Mosque (Turkish: Ulu Cami, "Grand Mosque") in Antalya is a historical mosque built by the Anatolian Seljuk Sultan Alaaddin Keykubad I. It is part of a külliye (complex of structures) which includes the Gıyaseddin Keyhüsrev Medrese, Seljuk and Dervish lodge, and the vaults of Zincirkıran and Nigar Hatun. The mosque is located in Kaleiçi (the old town centre). The mosque's fluted minaret called the Yivli Minare, which is decorated with dark blue tiles, is a landmark and symbol of the city.
The mosque was first built in 1230 and fully reconstructed for the second time in 1373. The minaret is 38 metres (125 ft) high and free-standing, built on a square stone base, with eight fluted sections and has 90 steps to the top.

Before I bring out my fall line of damsels, one semi-final Flame Skimmer that I just happened to catch perched on a blade of grass over the stream where the damsels often congregate. This is an unusual perch for a Skimmer, but he had no choice. The wind was really blowing and he caught it and was swinging back and forth. I was lucky to catch him before he gave up and flew off. I've seen very, very few Flame Skimmers or Cardinal Meadowhawks since the 26th. More Blue Darners and all manner of damselflies, but it could just be the change in weather the past two days.
De vorige twee dagen reed er een leuke combinatie op de treinen van en naar Turnhout, namelijk de 2742 met 5 M6 rijtuigen en de 1890 aan de andere kant. Omdat de 2742 aan kant Turnhout hing waren de fotomogelijkheden met acceptabel licht beperkt. Waar het gisteren mis ging met een fotowolk, had ik vandaag gelukkig een herkansing. Omdat ik in de buurt was kon ik hem op L13 vangen wanneer hij met de 3410 vanuit Binche naar Turnhout langs kwam.
