This is the Hagia Sophia and Blue Mosque during evening prayer in Istanbul, Turkey. As seen from my hotel room at Hotel Arcadia. I swear there is an El Torrito not two blocks from the Hagia Sophia
Islamic prayer with a Christian cathedral beholding a Christian cross on top of it, surrounded by 6 minarets? How ironic and how sad Turkish history is. Muslims, they are savages they will invade your land, destroy your church and use the same stones to built a mosque. Sometimes they get lazy and leave the church foundation then put a minaret beside it and call it a mosque, then claim they built it and their history is glorious.
Is the Hagia Sophia a Museum now or still a Mosque? I don't think it should be one since I mean it belonged to the Byzantine Christians and is such a beautiful work of art, it should be preserved for all worshipers.

@DelijaIzKrajine 1. Be happy that they didn't burn everything down. (unlike christians did that with mosque's)
2. "Islamic prayer with a Christian cathedral beholding a Christian cross on top of it, surrounded by 6 minarets"
FAIL. That is the Sultanahmet Mosque. It doesn't have a cross on top of it.
3. They don't claim they built the Hagia Sophia. They claim they added things.
4. Get your facts straight son.

Not "evening" prayer, its seems like "ikindi" (at 15:00 - 17:00 hours)

@whiteymcwhiters You really are dumb.
Agia is a Greek word meaning Saint.
Sophia is another Greek word.
Byzantine is another Greek word.
When the Mongol Turks over took Constantineople, They took over the Greeks in a very Coward like manner.
Agia Sophia was built by Greeks and no one else.
That was the pride of the Mongolo turks to take over the Greeks untill the Hellenes chased them out!!!
You seriously need to learn history before you start writing crap you know nothing about.

Someone shoot that idiot yelling out 5 times a day. How revolting to hear that. Agia Sophia would be weeping with that filthy cult Islamic calling.
Why would the Turks copy the agia Sophia? Is it because they're jealous of Greek architecture or because they have no imagination for architecture?
The blue mosque!!!! How retarded!!!!!
