Went to Istanbul during my spring break in 9th grade. It is very grand and majestic. A beautiful monument of Byzantium’s history. I also believe this is definitely a holy site for those who are either Christian such as myself or Muslim. Overall a great experience in Turkey and definitely worth seeing.
it his historical significance but it is not holy neither for both. in islam only 3 mosques are holy while in christianity only 5 to 6 are. constantinople is not a holy city. it was just the new capital of the roman east.

Byzªntine art, older than 1000 years old being taken down and destroyed. Gold leaf mozaiks just peeled off. Being replaced with ªrabic poetry I guess. Just disgusting that the other art is being destroyed. Uncalled for.
Story Time(...) It's Spring now. Steve Rogers stands by his window, Looking out at the bright sun and green grass. Gail Richards soon joins him, wrapping her arms around him and kissing the nape of his neck. Steve Rogers: I know I don't have A ring(...) But I promise you; I will get you one. Gail Richards: Are you asking me what I think you're asking me ?
@꧁♡pink bunny bugs♡꧂ is that why Muslims keep losing wars to Hindus …and why Muslims are losing wars to Christians of U.S., U.K., E.U., Canada? PS. The black stone at Kaba is a Shivling that Muslims appropriated as well, and worship it daily
As a Turkish Muslim, I wish it remained a museum.

One of my bucket list items is to visit this
It should be a museum!
and so Córdoba mosque and seville cathedral :)
It should be Orthodox Christian church again...
@@TheGreekRebel and so Córdoba mosque and seville cathedral :) and The Tzistarakis Mosque shall be mosques again
Beautiful church.
Too bad so much of it was plastered over. Gross
Agreed
Masjid
@@mk-ee7vx church
Mosque*

"We came from outer space to step on church stuff"
it is not part of the 7 wonders?
I have been there and I must say if you're ever in Istanbul than it's well worth the visit.
I visited the Hagia Sophia before it was restored back to a Masjid… It is truly a spectacular work of architecture… Regards🇶🇦❤️🇹🇷✌🏽👍🏽
That amazing! and did you ever win inside it?!

What do you mean “restored back”? If it was truly restored, it would be a church again.
@@russergee49 how about Córdoba mosque?

Thanks for a very nice video
The towers where added by the Ottomans
This is a must visit.
How about the history of Notre Dame next.?
And more of Beyond the 7 Wonders of the World until its complete.
It should not have been changed into a mosque.
The eight wonders of the world love it
Eight?

Istan-what? It's Constantinople
Nice place.
You sound A lot like the guy from the lore master CZcams channel.
💛 all your video's mate 👍.
Really beautiful place
I would like to see the story of beowulf.
I'm actually looking at his story now. I would still like to see them tell that story, though.
Yay!! I was there last year

Awesome and cool! ^_^
Stolen land... stolen churches... stolen blood.
Lovely 🌹
The blocks from Egypt came from the ruins of temples and pyramids.

Atatürk did the right thing to turn it into a museum. Religions claimed it theirs and he made a neutral decision.
My goodness, how many times did this place fall apart and then get rebuilt!?
First🤩🤩🤩
While it stands, byzantium will always be present, Justinian's church rising over its younger brother the blue mosque
First place
💖😍
The Hagia sophia is a church ⛪️✊✊✊
Except its pronounced "hi-yuh sofia"
Must be protected from the Decepticons
This was a Hindu temple to Mithra
Then converted into a church
Then a mosque
@꧁♡pink bunny bugs♡꧂ people against Islamic terrorism and Islamic supremacy care
Non-Muslims are still being subjugated in the 21st century
@꧁♡pink bunny bugs♡꧂ is that why Muslims keep losing wars to Hindus
…and why Muslims are losing wars to Christians of U.S., U.K., E.U., Canada?
PS. The black stone at Kaba is a Shivling that Muslims appropriated as well, and worship it daily
@꧁♡pink bunny bugs♡꧂ what, the Hagia Sophia?
@꧁♡pink bunny bugs♡꧂ I’ve watched Islamic videos but David Wood’s and Apostate Prophet’s are wayyy better
