Great photos Istanbullu. I didn't realize there were historic timber buildings in the heart of Istanbul.

There are 24 pictures on this page and there is only one building that is converted, namely the Hagia Sophia the rest is original Ottoman. I don't expect you to know this but if you don't have any knowledge then it's better if you don't say anything..

Aya Sofya wasn't Greek btw
![]() ![]() It was a Byzantine church, and if I'm correct the ruler who ordered it to be built was Roman ![]() So...Basicly, I think you should STFU
