Here are some photos from the last few days when we were tourist-ing around in Istanbul.

A Quran in the Topkapi Palace museum

Some tile-work in the Harem, Topkapi Palace
Basically the entire palace is covered in very detailed tile work and marble. Any picture you could possibly take could not do it justice. That probably goes for basically anything in Turkey that you could lay eyes on.

Hagia Sophia from the park in the evening. The inside of the structure is absolutely awesome!

Basilica Cistern... One of my favorite sites we've seen so far.
