Absolute Bliss

#temples While there are several mosques in Istanbul. The popularity and number of visitors everyday takes away any peace from the process of visiting a mosque. The sulemaniye mosque has all the popular elements of Turkish architecture, good location and vibe. With the added benefit of less crowd. Most mosques in Istanbul bar visitors during the hour of prayer service. So i waited for the mosque to open up again to visitors. That could be why it felt so empty. But it is a very well maintained mosque. Women need to cover and free coverings/scarfs will be provided at the entrance. The views from the mosque complex are also incredible, offering a panoramic vista of the city and the Bosphorus. If visiting a mosque interest you and you wish to not que up or deal with the hassle of crowds. This will be your best bet.#hiddengem #istanbul #summer #vacation #travel #womenwhotravel #solotrip #singapore
