Absolutely stunning mosque. We visited the big three while in Istanbul and this was certainly our favourite by a good way. Amazing history, I'd recommend getting the museum ticket too, which was fabulous for all ages. Go to the museum first to find out the amazing history and then in to the Hagia Sophia.
The mosque itself is gorgeous and quite impressive from the outside. It is costly to get in but you do get to see some historical Byzantine-era artwork alongside Islamic calligraphy. There are even seraphim's that decorate the mosque.
The Hagia Sophia Grand Mosque is something that all tourists must visit when in Istanbul. It was very interesting to learn that this beautiful building is 1500 years old.
A very important place to visit. The history of the East Roman Empire and the Ottoman Empire in one single place.
This is an amazing architecture with history. It was interesting how the religious identity of this mosque evolved with different rulers. Some of the views look way better than the pictures. It is a must visit when you are in Istanbul.
