Instanbul, Turkey: Hagia Sophia

Hagai Sophia was a great church which was created in the early 6th centureies. The church was created in the Byzantine style. I like the dome shapes. It is interesting that the video compared the building as a shell. The church has now been turned into a museum. It is a shame that the old Christian art was covered up.Years before it was a building for different religions. I guess the only way a building could survive is by being conquered and transformed as different symbols throughout time.
