Istanbul
Detail of ornate tiled ceiling, Sultan Ahmed Mosque, or Blue Mosque, 1609-16, by Mehmet Aga, Istanbul, Turkey. Built near the Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque combines Byzantine style with Islamic architecture. The blue tiles of the interior inspired its popular name, The Blue Mosque. The historical areas of the city were declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1985. Picture by Manuel Cohen
