Ancient gate now ‘brand new’

In the 800-year-old Alaaddin Mosque built in Seljuk style in the southern province of Antalya's Korkuteli district, the restoration of the crown gate has been finished. The ancient gate, which was rebuilt from scratch with new stone, is now "brand new." Many of the decorations and motifs of the historical gate, which are considered as masterpieces, are now missing.
