Nasrullah Mosque (Turkish: Nasrullah Cami) is a 16th-century Ottoman mosque in Kastamonu, Turkey.
It is located in Kastamonu just west of the Kastamonu Governor's Office and Gök River.
The mosque was commissioned by Kadı Nasrullah, a judge of the Ottoman Empire. It was built in 1506, during the reign of Sultan Bayazid II. The building underwent restorations in 1746, 1845 and 1945.[1]
The mosque has nine domes over six square columns each with the dimensions of 1.60 m × 1.60 m (5.2 ft × 5.2 ft). The narthex (Turkish: son cemaat yeri) has seven domes over ten columns. The pretentious public fountain (Turkish: şadırvan) of the mosque is in the courtyard to the north of the mosque. The mosque has two minarets.

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
