For your information, Agia Sofia is a church, but they tryed to make it look as a mosque, witch is impossible.

This brilliant church (was dedicated to the second person of Holy Trinity), is now museum because in 1453 became mosque (the only way to live till nowadays).

It is not just a church. It is THE church.

Not a mosque, not a church; Saint Sophia is a museum, since the 30th, it means, more than 70 years ago, it lost it's religious caracter and became a museum that represents an era of interest for all mankind. Thanks to Atatürk the creator of modern democratic Turkey. Not greek, not byzantine, not turkish, it belongs to mankind. Let's share it's splendor in peace! Rocky from Brazil
