Church turned mosque, Aya Sofia is the symbolic building of Istanbul.
You can see Islam symbols, the word Allah calligraphed on huge placards, side by side with Christian images and crosses. The main dome was under repair when I visited - which it has been for years already. I thought it was a pity that there were not many lights which makes enjoying the beauties a little hard at times. When the few lights were switched off at closing time, one by one the marvels were taken away completely from eyesight.
