RE: The Historical Penunsula of İstanbul (English/Turkish)

in #photography6 years ago

I know from history that the interior contains numerous murals, mosaics, silver and gold coatings, elements of terracotta and ivory. There is even a legend that says that Justinian originally planned to decorate the decoration of the temple entirely of gold, but the prophets dissuaded it, predicting the times of impoverished and greedy emperors who would not leave a trace of such a luxurious structure.
The decoration of the museum is so rich that it is almost impossible to briefly describe it, and not a single photo of Hagia Sophia in Istanbul is able to convey the elegance, atmosphere and energy that are inherent in this place. Therefore, it is best to see for yourself its greatness and be sure to visit this unique monument of history.
