Blue Mosque Istanbul 🇹🇷 | Türkiyè

Also known as the Sultan Ahmet Camii (or Sultan Ahmed Mosque), this breath-taking building is one of the most majestic Ottoman mosques in all of Turkey.
Built between 1609-1616, this impressive mosque has six minarets. Why is it called "Blue Mosque?" There are two stories: the first, more common one is that the interior is covered in Blue İznik tiles. The second is: many years ago, ancient sailors who sailed by the mosque on the Marmara Sea saw the blue colors of the sea reflected in the mosque.
If you’re going to visit just one tourist attraction in Istanbul I would make it The Blue Mosque - it is without a doubt an iconic emblem of Istanbul, and one of the most beautiful buildings I’ve ever seen. There was a huge queue when I got there which snaked around outside the complex, but it moved pretty quickly and I was inside under twenty minutes. If you’re not dressed appropriately they provide you with a covering, as well as scarves for women to cover their hair. A must see in Istanbul.
