5/5
Hagia Sophia - former Christian Cathedral, later an imperial mosque. Built in AD 537. Breathtaking! Unusual mix of 2 religions. Entrance ticket - 72 TRY (in July 2019). The best time for visiting - 9 am, at that time you will have a chance to enjoy the beauty without hundreds of tourists.

    Hagia Sophia is Turkey’s most popular tourist spot. It was originally built as a Christian basilica nearly 1,500 years ago. However, its function has changed several times and it is now reclassified as a mosque. Th Mosque is famous for its exterior as well as its interior. There are many tombs and monuments and will take few hours to go round the whole place.

    Stunning! Been wanting to visit the mosque since forever and glad I had the opportunity, from tv to reality! The Hagia Sophia is located in a park-like setting, most accessible via the Sultanahmet tram station. A true wonder of the Byzantine world - once a Christina church turned mosque after Constanstinople was conquered by Mehmet I. Spend some time admiring the massive dome, intricate mosaics and grand minarets!

    Breath taking architecture. The queue is long but worth a visit. Avoid visiting during time of prayer, as it will close for visitor.
