Suns

“In Istanbul’s historic Sultanahmet district, you can walk among the pigeons, domes and minarets. Opposite Saint Sophia, the ancient basilica of Constantinople, stands the Blue Mosque.

At the entrance, you take off your shoes and step into the rustling half-light, the thick silence of carpets and prayers. And then you look up in wonder: it’s so beautiful, so mysterious, these arabesques spinning like suns.”
