Hand-painted blue tiles adorn the mosque’s interior walls, and at night the mosque is bathed in blue as lights frame the mosque’s five main domes, six minarets and eight secondary domes. It sits next to the Hagia Sophia, the principal mosque of Istanbul until the Blue Mosque’s construction and another popular tourist site. The Blue Mosque was included in the UNESCO World Heritage Site list in 1985 under the name of "Historic Areas of Istanbul".

The view of Pamukkale is like that of a glacier stretching across the grassland. The translation from Turkish is “Cotton Castle”. In truth, they are the gleaming white travertine terraces formed over millennia by mineral deposits where the flowing water is from natural springs and is credited with healing powers. Cleopatra is alleged to have swam in one of the pools, which is open to the public (optional entry to Cleopatra’s Pool). Nearby are the ruins of Hierapolis, where the Roman baths converted into a church during the Byzantine era, the Baths and the Theater are located. The truly important thing about this site is its immense Necropolis and it is here that the remains of many of the sick who came to be cured in its hot springs and were unsuccessful are buried. Each tomb tells a story and they are small works of art.
