Sultan Ahmed mosque (Blue mosque)

Sultan Ahmet Mh., Torun Sk No:19, 34400 Istanbul, Turkey

Known as the Blue Mosque because of blue tiles surrounding the walls of interior design. In the 17th century, Sultan Ahmet I wished to build an Islamic place of worship that would be even better than the Hagia Sophia, and the mosque named for him is the result. Mosque comprises a tomb of the founder, a madrasa and a hospice. Besides being a tourist attraction, it's also an active mosque, so during the prayer time it's closed for non-worshippers.
