We finally managed to visit the inside of the Hagia Sophia and because it is now an active muslim mosque the ladies had to have their heads covered. This annoyed SV as she did not appreciate the subjugation of the patriarchy in enforcing her to wear a head covering while boys were allowed to run around unchecked. Her sense of justice was rightfully upset. KT on the other hand was excited for the visit and celebrated by going all jeans. Once inside the huge mosque/church we admired the size and decorations from the upstairs balcony. Turned out that was the only place the general public is allowed and only practicing muslims are allowed on the ground floor.
