The Blue Mosque (Sultan Ahmet Camii) is a representative building of the Ottoman Empire located in Istanbul.
The walls are decorated with about 20,000 Iznik tiles, and the delicate blue pattern is the origin of the name "Blue Mosque".
The natural light that pours in from more than 260 windows brightens the vast space, giving it a sense of grandeur and tranquility at the same time.
There is also a bazaar and Hagia Sophia around the mosque, so it is recommended to enjoy sightseeing there as well.
📍Location: Sultan Ahmet, Atmeydanı Cd. No:7, 34122 Fatih/İstanbul, Türkiye
💰Price per person: Free
