Harem Courtyard702 viewsThe Topkapi harem is something of a maze, consisting of a series of structures , built around courtyards and connected by hallways and walkways.

Blue Mosque - interior707 viewsThe mosque has over 200 stained-glass windows. The glass for the windows was a gift from Venice to the Sultan.

Sandie at Kursunlu Falls761 viewsThe bizarrely twisted and gnarled trees made a perfect frame for this scene.

Empty Tomb739 viewsLara Croft was here.

Sources of color847 viewsA display of the various plants used to produce the color essences for the dyes.

German Fountain648 viewsConstructed to commemorate Kaiser Wilhelm II's second visit to Turkey (1898). The Kaiser was promoting a Berlin-to-Baghdad railway which he hoped would provide Germany access to the Middle East with its rich oilfields.

Pictures at an Exhibition740 viewsChuck and Sandie check out some of the pictures on the wall near the Surveryor Lunar Lander. Space Camp promotes international amity; even Greek and Turkish kids get along fine here, regardless of their parents' hostilities. (No Armenians though.)

Work in Progress714 viewsWeaving has always been a great mystery to me, and I can't say that I understood it any better after watching how it's done.
