blue mosque istanbul
(90) 212-518-1319
Across the park from the Hagia Sofia is the early-17th-century Sultanahmet, or Blue Mosque. Famous for its scandalous six minarets (only the Prophet’s mosque at Mecca was allowed that many) and blue Iznik tiles, which inspired its nickname, the building is particularly dramatic at dusk. Indagare members can contact the bookings team to arrange for a private guide.
