Al-Muallaq Mosque stands for ‘hanging mosque’ and was named that way probably because the majority of its area is situated above a dome that hangs on a narrow street. Constructed in the 16th century and equipped with an alluring courtyard garden which can be reached through a series of declining staircase steps. The interior of the mosque is furnished with clear whitewashed flooring and the adjacent tower is octagon in shape, basic and simple. It is approximately 315 m2 in area and dates back to the Ottoman Era.
