Al Noor Mosque is a mosque built between 1984 and 1985 in Christchurch, New Zealand. It was the southernmost mosque in the world until 1999. The mosque was the main target of the Christchurch mosque attacks on March 15, 2019.
For Nur Mosque, the style of Edirne Selimiye Mosque, the masterwork of Sinan the Architect, was taken as basis. However, contemporary architecture was also used in the design of the mosque, and a different interpretation was brought to the classical style of the Selimiye Mosque. Chief Architect Koca Sinan applied the four-elephant-legged baldachin system (rectangular pergola system) in Istanbul Şehzadebaşı Mosque and Süleymaniye Mosques, and later gave up this system and started looking for a hexagonal baldachin space. The most mature example of this is Sokollu Mehmed Pasha Mosque. Subsequently, he started to search for the octagonal baldachin (octagonal pergola) system. The perfect example of this system is Edirne Selimiye Mosque. German architect Hans Koeph praised this mosque as "the most beautiful building in the world among the buildings before the industrial revolution."
The mosque has four minarets, each with three balconies, attached to the main body at the corners. The harmonious composition of the mosque has been completed with the five domes and magnificent porticoes in the narthex, which joins the northern façade of the main closed space.

It is known as the protocol mosque. It is a work built in the Ottoman architectural style, where the funerals of martyrs are usually held in the center of the city.
It is a beautiful, must-see mosque built on the basis of Edirne Selimiye Mosque. You can have a drink at the Muhabbet Pavilion located within the social complex.
We had the chance to visit in the evening. It looks very magnificent with the lighting. It is indeed a very beautiful and very large Mosque. The courtyard is also very large and peaceful. You can pray and drink tea from the tea house in the corner of the courtyard.
