The Hagia Sofiya is arguably the most celebrated architectural marvel of the ancient-medieval history. Built about 2000 years ago, the building wins over the tourists even on this date. It was a cathedral from the days of Constantine up until the times of the Ottomans when it was converted into a mosque. The building today serves as a museum giving the onlookers a glimpse into the rich heritage of Turkey. It is worth a visit and especially so if you have a thing for history and culture.!
