Guide
The mosque at Belenardıç village in Denizli was built in 1884 by a man named Halil Ağa, according to its inscription. It is a village mosque of the wooden-supported type: a nearly square rectangle with wooden posts and a wooden ceiling, a porch on the north side of the prayer hall, and a minaret closing the western end of that front. The walls are rubble stone, plastered. It was originally built with an earthen roof, but the earth was removed fairly recently and replaced with a hipped, tiled roof. The door into the hall is rectangular under a round arch.
The painted decoration is the reason to make the detour. Every wall of the porch is covered with it, and apart from the west wall, which has been repaired, all the walls of both the porch and the prayer hall are divided in two by a horizontal band of zigzag motifs, with each half further divided by vertical bands into rectangular panels. The panels are filled with various painted decorations in green, brown, black and blue.
