    Seeing the Sultan Ahmed Mosque from afar, with its ascending system of domes and sky-cutting minarets, is already much of a thrill, but come inside and this initial excitement will instantly melt away giving way to speechless admiration and awe. This combination of spaciousness, wondrous mosaics, dizzying lighting system, and flamboyant stained glass, coupled with the sight of people practicing their faith makes for a totally eye-opening experience that you're bound to be recalling any time you enter another place of worship. Spectacular!
