[quote=Anonymous]We went in 2013 and loved it. Went back just a few years later, and it was very different in tone/feel. First time, there were people telling us we didn’t have to cover our heads to enter the Blue Mosque (we did anyway). Second time, as soon as I entered the outdoor courtyard of the same mosque, I was immediately approached and admonished to cover my arms & head right away (I was wearing a short sleeve t-shirt). There were many more women in full cover (just a slit for eyes), and the attitude towards westerners was different. Now the Hagia Sophia has gone from museum back to mosque, etc. I wouldn’t personally visit right now, though statistically speaking, you’d probably be fine. [/quote]
