Blue Mosque
Constructed between 1609 and 1616, the striking Sultan Ahmed Mosque – or ‘Blue Mosque’ – is still a place of worship today. With no war victories to fund it, this opulent structure had to be paid for straight from the treasury – angering the Ottoman legal scholars of the time! Non-Muslim visitors are encouraged to visit, but should be respectful of the strict dress code.

There are many many well dressed VERY friendly and helpful men willing to show you around, avoid them, do not talk to them! They are all trying to sell you something. They can get aggressive if you engage them and the try to leave, best to avoid them and keep walking.

As a Lego enthusiast, my visit to the Blue Mosque in...
As a Lego enthusiast, my visit to the Blue Mosque in Istanbul was an experience filled with admiration and inspiration. The architectural grandeur and intricate design of the mosque immediately sparked ideas of how such a masterpiece could be recreated in Lego form.
The Blue Mosque, with its cascading domes and six slender minarets, presents a fascinating challenge from a Lego-building perspective. The symmetry and balance in its design, a hallmark of Islamic architecture, would require careful planning and a keen eye for detail to replicate using Lego bricks. The mosque's exterior, characterized by its harmonious proportions and majestic curves, would be an exciting and rewarding project to undertake, demanding the use of various shapes and sizes of Lego pieces.
Inside, the mosque's vast interior, dominated by the large central dome, is adorned with thousands of blue Iznik tiles. Capturing the essence of this intricate tile work in Lego would be a remarkable feat. The play of light through the 260 stained glass windows, which adds a dynamic element to the mosque's interior, could be imaginatively recreated using translucent Lego pieces to simulate the effect of light filtering through.
Moreover, the challenge of recreating the spiritual and serene ambiance of the mosque in a Lego model is intriguing. While Lego is often seen as a playful medium, it also offers immense potential for creating models that evoke a sense of reverence and peace, much like the atmosphere inside the Blue Mosque.
In essence, the Blue Mosque, as a subject for a Lego model, offers a rich blend of architectural complexity, historical depth, and artistic beauty. It stands as a testament to the creative possibilities that Lego offers to builders who are passionate about capturing the essence of the world's architectural wonders in brick form.

Sultanahmet is an overwhelmingly popular tourist destination, and a prime location for visitors to be wowed on a truly epic scale. Beyond the wonders of the Blue Mosque, the Hagia Sophia, Topkapi Palace, and more, this relatively small area of Istanbul somehow manages to retain an air of peace and calm. This is the first time I entered inside Blue Mosque. It was 28 July 2023, Friday, we went inside Blue mosque before Jummah Prayer. We performed Jummah prayer and felt very blessed.

A good guide is important.
A good guide is important. Beautiful place to find history, art, and if you let it, peace and calm, regardless of your beliefs. Dress appropriately and act respectfully. Wear socks so you're not bear footing it. One of the must-sees.

Great from the outside but inside access was CLOSED for x months for some reason. Surely some small part could be left for visitors to see a little of the inside? Most only ever get one chance to see such places.

Central location surrounded by restaurants and minutes away from the main attractions like Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, Grand Bazaar, etc.
The staff at the hotel are so friendly and helpful, they provide that personal touch that make you feel comfortable. The owner was there practically every day during breakfast and talks to all the guests. Cannot recommend this hotel.enough.
We had a great stay at Sareban Hotel Istanbul. Albeit the rooms are small, but they are very cosy and really clean. The beds were comfortable, the owners (Emir and his brother Mehmet) are superb hosts, very kind and friendly, always there to help with suggestions. Coffee and tea is always available. The hotel is in a nice and quiet location, very close (small walking distance) to the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia. Airport transfer is offered at a really good price. Highly recommend this hotel!
The location of the hotel is exceptional! Two minutes walk from the blue mosque, right beside arasta bazaar and 5/10 minutes walk from Hagia Sofia and the cisterns. The team was very nice, friendly and super helpful all the time, Emina made sure we always felt at home. The breakfast was very good and they arranged pick up and drop off from and to the airport for a very convenient price. definitely recommended! The room had all the essentials and we were facing the blue mosque.
We loved everything. The hotel’s location is awesome, near Hagia Sofia, Blue Mosque, Topkapi and Basilica Cistern. Our room was small but cozy and clean.
The location of the hotel was amazing, very close proximity to all the tourist sites. About a 5 minute walk to aya Sofia and the blue mosque. The area is also really lively. This is my 5th time in Istanbul and this is the best hotel I have stayed at! The staff were really lovely and accommodating, definitely recommend :)
The hotel is located nearby all important places, e.g Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque, Grand Bazaar. There is also a lot of places to eat and drink in close surroundings to the hotel. The personnel were amazing and breakfasts were delicious. Our room was really clean and daily service was on high level.
Excellent hotel, friendly and positive staff, gave us Turkish tea and recommended a good restaurant.
It is conveniently located in the old city and within walking distance of famous attractions such as Blue Mosque, Grand Bazaar etc.
I may not a very big room, but it's good enough for opening two big suitcases at the same time, and it has a lovely little balcony.
This quiet, comfortable and clean hotel is in a great location and is close to many historic sights in Istanbul. It's an easy 5 minute walk to Sultanahmet Square. But, if you're like us and enjoy exploring a city on foot, this is the perfect location. We appreciated the Turkish breakfast with a stunning view of the Blue Mosque. The staff is friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our stay and would return.
We had an exceptional stay at this Istanbul hotel with a prime location! View of the Blue Mosque from our room was exceptional and the roof terrace is breathtaking. The staff, Yunus & Berat, went above and beyond to ensure my comfort and satisfaction. Their hospitality and attentiveness truly made my experience unforgettable. We stayed in the Deluxe golden horn previously and the rooms here a much more modern compared. Will definitely be back!
