Blue Mosque















Hagia Sofia

Hagia Sofia...
When I had possibility to go via Istanbul... I could decide in one second... Oh, yes.... Please... :)


I do love the park and the fountain in front... It is soooo relaxing... :)


I love the interior as well... :) It's beautiful...






Moments of life


Religion is each moment present in daily life... the sound of the muezins.... 5 times a day... Praytime...
I like the sound of the muezin a lot... It is nice...


Well.. This is something I was sooooo curious to try...
Couldn't get to it... But maybe it is better that way... haha...
Looooooks really painfull.. hehehe...

Birds all around... and they are soooo beautiful when you feed them with those corns people sell... They are just all around you... Sooo beautiful... Sooo peacefull....

I also spent a couple of time sitting in the mosque... It's peacefull... Relaxing...




and as you can see.... I was not the only one to enjoy the shade of the mosque...


Ah yes... this one I forgot to talk about... The fountains to wash feet... at the mosque... as you have to remove your shoes...

Selling corns at the New Mosque...


Feeding the birds...





And this is the most beautiful view of the city...
This is a postcard... But when you arrive back with the local boat to Eminonu station... This is what you get... Sooooooooooooo nice... :)
