The second batch of photos from my recent trip to Istanbul. The magnificent mosques and palaces in the old city are the major tourist attractions in Istanbul but taking good photos of them as a tourist is almost impossible. To capture their glory in full you need both the right gear and a lack of tourists.
So my photos of the main 'sights' are very limited.

| Interior Hagia Sophia. Only Muslims are allowed onto the ground floor. Others have to settle for the first floor level from which this photo was taken |

| Exterior Dohlmabahce Palace |
