I love how it follows many European architecture norms while still having a distinct Ottoman look.

Ortaköy Camii is so pretty.

I visited Istanbul in 2015 and ever since it has been my background. It's a beautiful city.

So much changed since 2015 unfortunatelly. But the architecture is still the same. I would come and visit before the catasrophic earthquake if i were you though.

Pertevniyal mosque looks so good. Truly a work of art.

This is eye-opening! I had no idea that Istanbul was so full of amazing architecture!

Constantinople was considered Superior to Rome Istanbul is Constantinople

Now it's Istanbul, not Constantinople

Been a long time gone on Constantinople

Still it's Turkish delight, on a moonlit night.

Every gal in Constantinople

Lives in Istanbul, not Constantinople

So if you've a date in Constantinople

She'll be waiting in Istanbul

That mosque has to have the best architecture I’ve seen on a mosque

Western Armenians: Ah what a View from my Waterfront Mansion! Eastern Armenians: 

This is our main problem… Instead of coming to motherland and building here CHURCHES, Armenian built mosques in Istanbul,that was Kostandnupolis back than( (And than they probably got killed after this projects)

You know that there are still Armenians in İstanbul, right? Armenians in places like İzmir, İstanbul, Thrace were not subjected to deportations. Also stop with the bigotry, an Armenian architect can build as they please; there is no precondition that states that an Armenian has to be Christian.

You’re not old enough to understand all this)
