This one was a lucky find. I got off to work half an hour early, so i could maybe wander around a little bit and come by something interesting. The open door of this Imaret immediately hit me. I did not show the courage to go in as it is used as a Quran teaching house now, and they usually don't appreciate photographers.

An imaret is one of the names given throughout the Ottoman Empire and Muslim world referring to a soup kitchen, for travelers and the poor amongst others. (Wikipedia)
