A little bit of culture:
The hagia Sophie church is considerate the most important fact in the architecture of the byzantine period. I love this church because it shows us a magnificent dome made of bricks; at the same the most impressive part of the church are the four towers a rounded the church.
In the beginning was believed that those were the steeple of the church.
But know we know that after the turkeys arrived Constantinople, the byzantine emperor create in 1453 D.C those tall and straight towers that are called minaret, the minarets were create because they want to all the people hear the five calls of the oration.
The minarets were built in three parts:
Base: “the ground is ground is excavated until a hard foundation is reached. Gravel and other supporting materials may be used as a foundation.” Wikipedia.
Shaft: this are providing the necessary structural support to the highly elongated shaft.
Gallery: It is covered by a roof-like canopy and adorned with ornamentation.
