The Blue Mosque is on one of the most prominent landmarks of Istanbul, especially when viewed from the first Hill or from the Asian shore of the sea of Marmara. It is very impressive with its beautiful domes and semidomes, nice courtyards and six slender minarets. The Blue Mosque has fascinating secrets revealed in my travel memoir. This is one of Istanbul’s premier sights, and you’re welcome to visit at most times of day, for free (donation gratefully received). But it’s also a working mosque, so it’s closed to non-worshippers for half hour or so during the five daily prayers, and may be closed for a longer time middy on Friday, the Muslim holy day.
