Istanbul: Walking

Rustem Pasa Mosque
We've done a lot of walking on this trip and today was no exception. It was just a little more leisurely as we had no real agenda. We took the tram across the Golden Horn, then took the underground funicular up the hill. From there it's a pleasant walk back down the hill on a pedestrian only street lined with shops. We walked across the bridge over the Golden Horn and visited one of our favorite mosques, the Rustem Pasa Mosque. This mosque is know for the high quality tiles that the interior is adorned with.

Have some fresh squeezed orange juice...
... or pomegranate juice.
