The second destination on our tour of Istanbul was the Ayasofya Müzesi, also known as Hagia Sophia (''Divine Wisdom'').
This informational placard provides an overview of the building's long and storied history:
AYASOFYA (HAGIA SOFIA)
The present Ayasofya is the third building of the same name that was constructed in the same place.
The First Great Church serving as the cathedral was constructed by Emperor Constantius (337-361) in 360; it had a basilica plan and was covered with a wooden roof. During a riot that occurred during the reign of the Emperor Arcadios (365-408) in 404, it was set on fire.
After reconstruction, it was rededicated by the Emperor Theodosios II (408-450) in 415, and had a similar basilica plan. It survived until the more serious Nike riot in 532 as the greatest church in the city. After the Nike revolt against the Emperor Justinian (527-565) it was set alight and shortly afterwards razed to the ground to make way for a new church.
The Emperor Justinian built the new Hagia Sophia, meaning ''Holy Wisdom'', in the same place, as the world's largest cathedral. The construction began in 532 and was completed in 537, a period of only five years. It was dedicated with a big ceremony on December 27th 537 A.D. The church was planned by the architects Isidore of Miletus (today Balat) and Anthemios of Tralles (today Aydın): a central large dome supported by two half-domes on the eastern and western sides, different from the former basilica type.
With the conquest of Istanbul by the Ottoman Sultan Mehmed II in 1453, Hagia Sophia, as the largest religious structure of the city, was converted into a mosque. Ayasofya has been repaired many times during the Ottoman period. It was strengthened with additional structural support walls. These vital repairs and additions contributed both to making it survive until present and bringing a Turkish-Islamic character to the building.
In the 16th century, extensive repair works were made by the architect Sinan. During this period, exterior structural support walls and minarets were added. All these additions ensured that Ayasofya became the largest complex of Ottoman times. In the reign of the Sultan Abdülmecid (1839-1861), the Swiss Fossati Brothers made various kinds of repairs, between the years of 1847 and 1849.
Ayasofya, which reflects a combination of Christian and Islamic elements, was transformed into a museum by the decision of the cabinet and the order of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk. It was opened to the public on February 1, 1935.
This was our bus driver at the British School in Caracas. In this photo, the bus is parked in front of the school.

"255/365"..."Arcadio Castillo"
Hace unos días, doblaba en la calle donde vive mi suegra. Ahí me encontré a Arcadio, mejor conocido como "Blanco". Cuando lo invité a ser parte del proyecto, me rebotó. Me dijo: "Vamo' a véi si depué'". Quedamos en que, como los viernes como en casa de mi suegra, le iba a preguntar de nuevo.
Mi Esposa tiene una amiga que vive en el edificio donde Blanco trabaja como encargado del mantenimiento y ésta lo convenció. Blanco tiene 30 años trabajando en el mismo edificio y conoce a la familia de mi esposa desde que eran pequeños.
Hoy pasé a casa de mi suegra y le pregunté de nuevo. Estuvo de acuerdo y fue hasta a cambiarse la franela de trabajo por una camisa "de vestir".
Es oriundo de Puerto Plata. Nació en Sosúa. No sabe en qué año, nunca lo declararon. "Mi madre era de eta gente bruta y no sé si llegó a declaraime, no me bautizán en el sitio donde yo nací. No conocí a mi padre. No tengo a nadie ahí, nadie que me diga. Debo tenei má' de 70 año'. A mi me dijo un heimano mío que andaba atrá' de mi aita de nacimiento, a vé dónde me bautizán, pero no la jayó. Según un primo me dice, tiene que sei como en ei 32, por ahí".
Antes de venir a la capital era agricultor y cultivaba principalmente maní. Luego trabajó en la industria del carbón, en una finca que Trujillo le dió a unos judíos.
Cuando llegó a la capital trabajó en el área de construcción. Trabajó 8 años con un ingeniero hasta que construyeron el edificio donde ahora labora. Al terminar la construcción, la compañía lo dejó a cargo del cuidado de éste y más adelante como encargado de mantenimiento.
Tiene 3 hijos, 2 hembras y un varón. Tiene 9 nietos y siempre visita a sus hijos, por lo menos 3 veces al año. Nunca se ha desconectado de ellos.
Un hombre de los que ya quedan pocos. Arcadio es una de esas personas que son institución. Foto de la fiesta de San Antonio en Caleao (Caso, Asturias). / Arcadio, a great man from Caleao. (Asturias, Spain)
