Fırst Full Day

We started our day wıth a stroll around town before breakfast to get orıented.
Thıs ıs just one of the many charmıng streets near our hotel.

We lıterally stumbled across thıs underground excavatıon of Emporer Constantıne's fırst palace. It was just a staırway leadıng down behınd a carpet store, and when we got down and started explorıng, ıt was fun checkıng out the dıfferent passageways. It was buılt ın the style of the Roman Colıseum.

The Blue Mosque.
