The Green Mosque (Turkish: Yeşil Camii), also known as the Mosque of Mehmed I, is a part of the larger complex located in Bursa, Turkey, which includes a madrasah, a mausoleum (türbe), a kitchen and bath. Commissioned by Sultan Mehmed I Çelebi and completed in 1424, the mosque is a notable example of early Ottoman architecture and a key tourist attraction in Bursa.

The mosque's interior is adorned with a rich display of Iznik tiles, which give the building its name, featuring shades of green and blue. The tiles exhibit a variety of floral and geometric patterns, reflecting the artistic transition from Seljuk to Ottoman culture. The Green Mosque is particularly renowned for its elegantly carved marble mihrab and minbar, as well as the impressive doorway leading to the main hall.

Mehmet Ruhi Arel, a prominent Turkish art historian, has written extensively on Ottoman art and architecture, and his work on the Green Mosque is considered an important contribution to the field. Arel's scholarship provides insights into the mosque's historical context, architectural features, and its significance within the development of Ottoman art. His detailed analysis of the Green Mosque's design elements, such as the tile work and calligraphy, offers a deeper understanding of the cultural and religious influences that shaped Ottoman aesthetic sensibilities during the early 15th century.

The Green Mosque remains an active place of worship and a symbol of the city's rich historical tapestry. It is part of the Historic Areas of Istanbul, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, which was inscribed in 1985 due to its outstanding universal value as an example of urban planning involving religious, social, and commercial buildings representing various periods of history.
