Hiking

First church, then Mosque and now museum. The Hagia Sophia is the highlight of an Istanbul trip. A true eye candy, there is so much to discover. Painted Christian symbols and saints that reappear. Hundreds of prayer rugs and chandeliers from the Thousand and One Nights. Come, see, be astonished.

Hagia Sophia is a former Orthodox church from Bizantine times, used as a mosque in Ottoman times, then until recently as a museum, now used as a mosque again. Close to Sultan Ahmet and Yerebatan Sarnıcı.
