Ceremonial Hall Dome701 viewsThe domed ceiling of the Ceremonial Hall. The dome is 118 feet high. Note the thin, frail-looking cable from which the 4.5 ton chandelier is suspended. I wouldn't want to be under the chandelier in an earthquake.

Chuck Mattox at Ephesus700 viewsThe notorious eclipse-chaser strikes again.

It's Miller Time!700 viewsEven in an Islamic country, you can't get away from beer ads.

Entertainment Value700 viewsThe Basilica Cistern has been featured in a number of movies, including the James Bond thriller From Russia With Love, in which Bond took advantage of its location under the Soviet Consulate to get access to a cryptographic machine. In reality, the Consulate is nowhere near the Cistern.

The Gate of Felicity700 viewsEntrance to the Third Courtyard, where the private residence of the Sultan was located. Also known as the Gate of the White Eunuchs. Entry was permitted only by permission of the Sultan.

The Stadium at Aphrodisias699 viewsOne can imagine Ben-Hur and Messala duking it out in chariot races here.

An Eclipse-Chaser's Dream699 viewsThe beachfront park behind the Kaya Side Hotel was an ideal site for watching an eclipse, and the weather was cooperative.

Flight of Fancy699 viewsI'm not sure what sort of creatures the artist intended to represent here, but the juxtaposition of the animal and floral life was superbly executed.

Christian Church699 viewsChristians and Jews comprise only 1-2% of the population of Turkey, and most of the Christian churches are concentrated in Istanbul, many of them in the Beyoğlu district. I was unable to identify the denomination of this church.

Scribes' Hall699 viewsThe scribes who kept the minutes of the Council meetings occupied this room, next to the Council chamber itself.

Upper Galleries699 viewsThe western gallery was the Empress' Loge, the northern was for the court women, and the southern for the emperor. The hexagonal structure at lower right, below the gallery, is the Sultan's Loge, a 19th-century addition.

Empress Zoe mosaic699 viewsChrist is seated in the middle holding a Bible; on the left is Emperor Constantine IX Monomachus, and on the right, Empress Zoe. Dates from the 11th century AD. Located on the eastern wall of the southern gallery.
