Dezső Bozóky hand-coloured glass diapositive. From Dezső Bozóky's Photographic Collection: Constantinople (İstanbul), Üsküdar district.The origins of the open turbeh are uncertain; some believe it was built for Karaca Ahmet Sultan, the son of a Turkmen nobleman, and his horse, others think it is the resting place of Hamza Pasha, who lived in the second half of the sixteenth century.
