Description

Commissioned by Byzantine emperor Justinian I, the Haghia Sophia is one of the most famous buildings in the world. It gained its iconic minarets when the Ottomans conquered Constantinople in 1453 and, impressed by its beauty, converted it to a mosque.

Yeah, kind of! I like it. Actually, in real life, I reconstruct ancient Roman ships (maritime archaeology). Four books published in the USA show some of them.

Haven't checked in for a while... I have a new job so pretty busy, plus I'm determined to finish the Apocalypse Ep4 before starting some new big project...

Is it bad that I only know this landmark from Assassin's Creed?
