The Blue Mosque's historical and architectural significance, as well as its cultural and religious importance, make it a central attraction in Istanbul. The inclusion of the mosque in the UNESCO World Heritage Site list underscores its value in preserving and showcasing the rich history of Istanbul.
The mosque's distinctive features, such as the central dome, semi-domes, courtyard, and minarets, reflect the classical Ottoman architectural style. The interior adorned with Iznik tiles and floral motifs in shades of blue adds a unique and visually stunning aspect to the mosque, earning it the popular name "Blue Mosque."
The strategic location of the Blue Mosque, situated across from the Hagia Sophia and near the former Hippodrome, creates a historical and cultural ensemble, making this area a focal point for tourists and visitors interested in exploring the rich heritage of Istanbul.
The inclusion of Ahmed I's tomb, a madrasa, and other structures within the mosque's kĂĽlliye further contributes to its significance as a religious complex, showcasing the multifaceted aspects of Ottoman architecture and cultural practices.
Overall, the Blue Mosque stands as a testament to the grandeur and artistry of the Ottoman Empire, inviting both worshippers and tourists to appreciate its architectural magnificence and historical importance.
Since I am in Turkey, I unfortunately did not have a lot of availability to share pictures on my page with you my Flickr friends. Today I wanted to share with you a picture caught in the area of Kapadokia (Cappadocia) showing one of the numerous villages built in rocks in the valley near Gömere. I love this picture for the subject but also for the sunlight crossing the clouds and lighting one village in the valley and the top of this snowy mountain far away. I know it does not look like this but I can tell you when I took this picture the temperature was a little 0C (32F) and I was totally frozen after having staid outside for 4 hours... just taking small Turkish teas to warm my body...
Depuis le début de ce voyage en Turquie, je n'ai pas eu beaucoup de disponibilités pour partager mes photographies sur ma page avec vous mes amis Flickr. Mais aujourd'hui je voulais partager avec vous ce cliché pris dans la région de Kapadokia (Cappadoce) montrant un des nombreux villages construits dans la pierre dans la vallée près de Gömere. J'aime cette photographie pour son sujet mais aussi pour la lumière du soleil traversant les nuages pour éclairer un de ces villages et le sommet de la montagne enneigée tout au loin. Je sais que cela n'y semble pas mais au moment où j'ai capté cette scène il faisait à peine 0 C (32F) et j'étais complètement frigorifié après être resté dehors pendant près de 4 heures ne prenant au passage que quelques thés Turc pour me réchauffer.

For the last picture of this series (do not worry more pictures of Turkish cats will come later...), I choose a special picture. This was on the boardwalk, along the sea, in Izmir, Turkey. Around 10:00pm. No lights. This was raining. I had to guess the path where I was going. I heard cats who were RRRRROARING. I used my flash and have time to take one single picture before they get out. The result is pretty surprising I have to say with the reflections of the two cats on the sidewalk. The kind of picture, even this is not perfect, is always interesting to catch, having the feelings to be at the good place at the good moment to catch it. I love this kind of picture that makes me loving "photography".
Pour ma dernière photographie de cette série (ne soyez pas désolés, d'autres photographies de mes amis les chats turcs suivront sous peu), j'ai choisi une photo particulière que j'ai prise sur la promenade le long de la baie de Izmir, Turquie. Il était environ 22:00hrs. Cette partie de la promenade n'était pas éclairée. Il pleuvait abondamment. Je devais deviner mon chemin et je me déplaçais lentement. J'ai entendu le RRRRROARING de chats qui se chamaillaient . Après avoir pris ma caméra et y avoir placé le flash, j'ai localisé les belligérants et j'ai pris ce seul et unique cliché avant que les deux chats ne s'enfuient. Le résultat m'a étonné avec cette réflexion sur le trottoir, non pas que la photographie soit parfaite, loin de là , mais ayant le sentiment d'avoir été à la bonne place au bon moment. J'aime ce genre de photographie, celles qui font que l'on devienne amoureux de la photographie.
The "Travertines" in Pamukkale, area of Denizli, Turkey. At the first level you can see the calcium falls. If you look at the 3/4 of the picture, left side, you can see people walking along the Travertines giving you a real appreciation of how largess the site. At the top of the picture we can distinguish the volcano mountain.

Si vous regardez sur la gauche, vers le 3/4 de la photo, vous pouvez voir des personnes qui marchent le long des Travertines, cela pouvant vous donner une idée de la grandeur du site. Au haut de la photo, nous distinguons le sommet d'un volcan.
