Hagia Sophia was transformed into a mosque by Fatih Sultan Mehmet, who conquered Istanbul in 1453.
During the Ottoman period, in the 16th and 17th centuries, Hagia Sophia added mihrabs, pulpit, muezzin, sermon.
In large panels; God, Hz.Muhammed, Hz.EbuBekir, Hz.Ömer, Hz.Osman, Hz.Ali Hz. Hasan and the names of Hz. Hussein are written.
Huge columns and marble doors in Hagia Sophia are fascinating.
If you come to istanbul, you should visit Hagia Sophia.
