Inside the "Blue Mosque"

Note the blue windows. The electric lights you see replaced the original olive oil candles. Although a spectacular tourist attraction for us, all of the men took this visit as an opportunity to perform their evening prayer. If you squint your eyes, you can see them way in the back on the right side. In Islam, prayer is more powerful when done as a group with one person leading the recitation. No shoes allowed and Danica was sure to wear a head scarf.
