Blue Mosque

There is a blue Mosque in Istanbul! This Mosque is very stunning and can be seen from a distance because it is encircled with no less than six narrow towers. The Mosque itself is also interesting because instead of a single dome, the huge roof is made of cascading domes.

I took a few pictures for my blue collection. I don't know if the pictures will be really any good. I just think it is funny that we are staying 5 minutes away from the "Blue Mosque".

BTW, there is also a blue circumsicion room at the Topkapi palace. I did not go in though.
