M. KhalidAugust 8, 2019It’s an overhyped place. Honestly less than what I expected and most of the walls were covered up so you only get to see half of the church/mosque walls.
Mehmet YalcinerSeptember 28, 2011Fuck all of the people who call ayasofya like church... Its a symbol of 1453...
Themahsa KmSeptember 14, 2019Old mosque museum, if you live in countries like Iran there is nothing new inside for you
