Magical cascading dome... No, no. Domes, and six slender minarets of the Sultanahmet Mosque -better known as Blue Mosque- dominate the skyline of my Istanbul...
And, I was viewing outside from the church of the holy wisdom god, but today's museum, Hagia Sophia, and photographing to the one of the most beautiful mosques in the world. These two great architectural achievements stand next to each other so closely in the main square.
It is really up to you to decide which is more impressive!

Ciao Nicole, foto meravigliosi, posti da vedere.

Ti auguro un'ottima domenica e spero un giorno di conoscerti:-)
@ Riri: Ah scusami, ho sbagliato con nomi. Spero che lei mi perdona:)
ReplyDeleteIt must be wonderful to live in the shadow of so many beautiful places.
ReplyDeleteWonderful series!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos! Living in Istanbul must be so inspiring!!
ReplyDeleteFor me both are impressive. I've seen the Hagia Sophia on tv and in books but I've never heard of the other one.
ReplyDeleteCiao Nicole, non preoccuparti, sei perdonata:-) Ti abbraccio: Rirì e..buona giornata.
ReplyDeleteNihal, you have shown me just how beautiful your Turkey is. I have always been fascinated about the architecture of the mosques. The minarets are exquisite.
ReplyDeleteYou bring it all to life for me.
I love these photos Nihal,excellent capture.
ReplyDeleteNihal: You can see your lovely monuments in different ways at different times and moods and seasons and, as you have shown here, from a million angles.
ReplyDeleteVery creative. Nice job.
