Suleymaniye Mosque shown above was quite beautiful. We also did Topkapi Palace and the Blue Mosque. In the Blue Mosque, we had to take our shoes off and I had to cover my head and knees and shoulders. I always take a scarf when we travel, you would be surprised how many places of Worship ask women to cover their heads, which does not bother me in the least to do so. I wore a skirt quite often in Istanbul which fell below my knees and I rarely wear tank tops, you never know where you are going to end up and I don’t want to miss something because of clothing.
We had quite a lot of adventures while staying in Istanbul but I won’t bore you with all my photos!
