The Blue Mosque

This is a picture of the Blue Mosque at night. The mosque was commissioned by Sultan Ahmet I and was built between 1609-1616.
The Haghia Sophia

The Haghia Sophia

This magnificent building dates from AD 537, but has seen additions to its structure as recently as the late 1800s.

I took a boat ride on the Bosphorus so I could go to the Asian side of the city.
