Blue Mosque is not only Turkey’s famous mosque but it’s also one of the world’s beautiful mosques that people from all races and religions, around the world, especially those of tourists, must include on their itinerary to Turkey. This 400 years old blue tiled mosque is simply a symbol of peace and love.
Turkey’s landmark Sultanahmet Camii, also known as *the Blue mosque*, situated in the heart of a historic city, Istanbul. The mosque has been renovating since July 2017, it was a four years projected restoration plan, which could be delay. Part of the mosque has been remained functioning for the worshipers, while still today, there can be seen many scaffoldings all over the mosque. Though the idea of not affecting tourism negatively was also the part of the project, nevertheless some photographers are waiting for the restoration to be completed to be able to capture iconic views of the mosque without scaffoldings, once again.
It’s interesting that in 2019 Travel & Tourism Competitiveness Index has reported Turkey on 43 position out of 140 countries.
