The courtyard of the Blue Mosque is often busy

beautiful stanied glass windows

The main dome

I am impressed each time we visit

Many of the tiles are from Iznik

Stained glass windows illuminate a large open space

The interior area is blocked off and tourists may not enter. The small bags that may people are carrying contain their shoes.

The late afternoon winter sun illuminates the gold caligraphy over the main entrance.
