    Blue Mosque

    August 24, 2019 in Turkey ⋅ ⛅ 26 °C

    Large mosque at sultanahmet square. Legend has it the after the fall of Constantinople, the sultan decided that if th Christians could build something as magnificent as Hagia Sophia, the Muslims could too. Sorry he built this mosque across the square. Unfortunately, it is under renovation. So the full space is not visible. Even so, it is still impressive and beautiful.
    The first 5 pics are inside. The last is of the building from the courtyard.
