Inside the Ark Fortress we found the Jami Mosque which was erected in the 18th century. Its most striking feature is the large ayvan at the front of the building supported by four wooden columns. Research into this mosque has been made a little tricky because so far i have found three different names: 'Jome', 'Jami' and 'Djami'. To keep me on my toes it also has other sobriquets including 'Friday Mosque' and 'Great Mosque'.
