Friday Postcard: Blue Mosque

Posted on 06. Jan, 2012 by in Photos

I love this one! Such a unique view of a popular tourist attraction. This postcard was provided by Pawel and Lavanya of Iced Chai:

The magnificent ceiling of the Sultan Ahmed mosque in Istanbul, Turkey. The primary colour of the tiles used in the mosque is blue thus giving the mosque its unofficial and popular name – Blue Mosque.

    Thanks Diana and Alouise! :) The mosque was really quite impressive even though I’d seen many pictures of it before visiting Istanbul.
