the city.\u00a0 It was the best layover I\u2019ve ever had!<\/p>\n<p>There is amazing historic architecture everywhere, but one building that kept capturing my eye was the Blue Mosque.\u00a0 We had a beautiful view from our hotel and it was one of the most enjoyable structures that I had ever photographed.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most memorable experiences I had was a Turkish bath.\u00a0 We went to a bath that was over 500 years old and built into a cave.\u00a0 Between having hot water splashed on me and getting beat up by a big hairy Turkish man, I never felt better.\u00a0 I will definitely never forget it.\u00a0 I don\u2019t have an pictures of it, but hope you\u2019ll enjoy the rest of what I captured. &#8211; McCory<\/p>\n<p><a
