Hello @Mohamedsalah25 ,

Thanks for sharing your photos. I still haven’t visited Turkey but I hope I will get the chance soon. What else is worth seeing? Do you have some tips for the Local Guides who would like to visit the mosque like what should they wear and when is the best time to go there?

[Mohamedsalah25]

hello @Austinelewex
more details , as per your request Boss

[Mohamedsalah25]

hello @MoniDi
about wear , especially ladies , you should cover here , no short slaves or short skirts allowed

but no worry , on the gate , they will give you clothes matching with Islamic rules for Mosques & for man normal clothes expect shorts

best time to go there always will be morning ( from 9:00 to 12:00 ) before noon prayer for Muslim , otherwise you have to avoid prayer times

but if you love to making photos , sure the time during sundown and evening the best for photographer
also , inside the mosque , you can have Copy of Holy Quran in many languages
i hope this enough
