Mosque Part 2

I visited the mosque with some friends and their Turkish nanny. This building is beautiful and enormous. You take off your shoes before you go inside. I brought my own scarf to cover my head, but they have scarves there you can use. I am standing next a staircase that represents the journey to heaven. Only the Hodja (priest) can go on the stairs and even he can only go part of the way up.

These tiles on the wall look so much like a Turkish rug.
