Next stop was the New Mosque or how it is called here: Yeni Camii. Not sure why they call the Blue Mosque blue but this one is very blue as well. And way less tourists at all times. But first one has to walk there – or take the tram that goes down there as…
The Sultanahmet Mosque is the one where all the tourists go. And it is worth it – but than do not miss and visit the other big ones as well. The Sultanahmet Mosque or Blue Mosque is very impressive from the outside and great from the inside. Built from 1609 to 1616, during the rule…
A nice day trip with the ferry boat from Istanbul to the islands. Büyükada is the biggest of the Prince Islands and the boat ride alone is worth the trip. And than a nice walk over the islands. So many of the wood houses are going south. Still a lot that are in good shape…
