Hasanâbâd Tekkesi (MEGT)
Istanbul, Türkiye
Evliya Çelebi describes this place as follows: It was built on a high location with a broad view of Unkapanı during the reign of Sultan Murad IV. Since its patron was still alive, he organized parties (banquets with musicians and singers). Like many other tekkes, it has gardens.
