Hagia Sophia is a magnificent place to go and see Istanbul ... I went and enjoyed the atmosphere, the smell of the rate and the most beautiful of the past journey to history. I want to talk about Hagia Sophia ...
Hagia Sophia is the largest church in the East Roman Empire in Istanbul and has been rebuilt three times.
Royal procession surrounds Justinian 1. as he leaves Hagia Sophia.

Hagia Sophia was transformed into a mosque by Fatih Sultan Mehmet, who conquered Istanbul in 1453.
During the Ottoman period, in the 16th and 17th centuries, Hagia Sophia added mihrabs, pulpit, muezzin, sermon.
In large panels; God, Hz.Muhammed, Hz.EbuBekir, Hz.Ömer, Hz.Osman, Hz.Ali Hz. Hasan and the names of Hz. Hussein are written.
Huge columns and marble doors in Hagia Sophia are fascinating.
If you come to istanbul, you should visit Hagia Sophia.
Apart from 1 and 2, the pictures belong to me.
