When two worlds collide - A great place to witness two major religions Come together under a grand roof. The transition from church to mosque is quite unique. The paintings, mosaics , tiles the stories you hear transform you back in time. Great respect is given to both Christianity and Islam in way everyone can appreciate the two religions. Ladies head coverings are required along with appropriate dress code. It was a pleasure to witness an actual pray service as you tour the premises. Cats are also a part of visiting the Hagia Sophia as cats are everywhere in Turkey

Must-see attractions - Hagia Sophia is a basilica where you will find history and art, spectacular to visit and interesting to know the history and its greatness

SHOP till you DROP - Simply amazing culture and friendly interface with all the locals I met. Bazaar shopping is unique. Don't be intimidated by the atmosphere or prices.....EVERYTHING is negotiable!

Greta for history buffs , shoppers and sight seeing - Great place lots of things to see Hagia Sophia and Thr Blue Mosque , the Grand Bazar is amazing., take a boat around the Harbour , interesting and tasty food

the beauty of the hagia sophia mosque - I really enjoyed visiting this mosque. I feel like visiting it many times. From a historical perspective and for tourists, it is very impressive.

Must-see in Istanbul - Istanbul’s iconic mosque is not the most spectacular, but the most historic. Must-see visit, time is noticeable and maintenance is what they can give. Recommended guided tour.

You're scammed with the tickets are 25 but you get 50 euros if you're not attentive - At the ticket office they put you 25 euros but if you're not ready they charge you 50 you get another visit of a museum that is not worth such a thing and you have a queue of one hour because they enter 15 in 15 and charge you 25 Ami ne took

Extortionate prices - All sites have dual pricing, with . being charged up to 5 x more. So we didn't see all we wanted to. Basilica cistern, great.Blue Mosque good. Recommend museum before Hagia Sofia, as learnt the history. Grand bazaar, make sure you haggle, and walk away . If they are going to reduce the price, they will call you back. The spice market is good, but there are stalls outside of the main bit , cheaper. I'd recommend a food tour , which also goes to the Asian side- which definitely has a more relaxed vibe- also includes a ferry crossing on the Bosphorus , and the guide can point out the sites to see. Overall had a great , tiring time, but be prepared to spend.

Once and not again - Great architecture, especially the impressive built-ins under the dome

Don't waste your money - Very over priced ticket. I paid $50 at the gate and the visit was only to the top part. Less than 5 minutes worth. Not worth it at all. Don't waste your money. The ticket didn't include a guide. I'll regret it for eternity.
