Destination Turkey: Istanbul

A chandelier hangs from the ceiling of the Sultan Ahmet Mosque or the Blue Mosque in Istanbul Turkey. The Blue Mosque receives its nick-name from the thousands of blue tiles that adorn the interior. Construction on the mosque began in 1606 and concluded in 1616. The mosque has six minarets and 260 windows. (U.S. Air Force photo/Staff Sgt. Lauren Padden)
