What the community said
The mosque is about 2 km from the Old Town — best reached by taxi, then you can walk to the Old Market afterwards. It stays open until evening; entry is only restricted during daytime prayers, so arriving around 7 PM works well. Photography is allowed inside; cover knees and shoulders.

The mosque is illuminated in the evening, making it a great spot for night photography. Check in advance whether tourists can enter at that hour — access may be restricted during evening prayer times.
