Though not in Istanbul it may be instructive to view the gallery of pictures of the biggest mosque in the country, built in the end of the 20th century, the Merkez (central) Mosque in Adana. Or visit the best work by the best architect, Sinan, the Selimiye in Edirne.

Note also that under many pictures you can click on View map, which will show you where the building is situated.

In 2008 I saw for the first time - at two mosques so far - that there were plastic bags rolling out of dispensers, in which one is requested to put one's shoes. Over the last couple of years there has been an increase in re-usable bags being handed out, this is progress in action. Or is it? I have found an article explaining this, I myself had just read that in China plastic bags are to be forbidden because of their obvious cost to the environment. The bags in the mosques are to be used just once ....

HaghiaSophia is mentioned as museum, mentioning it as mosque would make people complain it was a church, which it was!

Ortaköy'de doğup büyümüş biri olarak o muhteşem manzaraya geri plandaki köprüyü bile yakıştıramaz iken, siz siluetteki o gudubet kuleleri yansıtarak İstanbul'uma yönelik tecavüzlerden birini teşhir etmişsiniz . İnternet kullanmaya başladığımdan beri aldığım en güzel dosya bu oldu.Sonsuz teşekkürler, takdirler ve başarı dileklerimi iletirim. Orhan ÖLMEZ

Bütün resimler tek tek yorumları hakediyor ama ben toplu yapayım en iyisi. Ortaköy camisi benim çok hoşuma gitti. İnsanlar hep arkasına boğaz köprüsünü alarak fotograf cekerler ama siz çok farklı yaklaşmıssınız olaya tebrikler..
