The Kilic Ali Pasha Complex is a group of buildings designed by Mimar Sinan and built in 1586. It is located in Tophane quarter of Istanbul, Turkey. It is named after Kilic Ali Pasha.
It consists of a mosque, a madrasa, a hamam, a türbe, and a sebil. Originally, it had been on the coastline, but since the sea in front of it has been filled, it is now surrounded by other buildings. The mosque of the complex has been famous for its resemblance to Hagia Sophia since its construction.
