Hagia Sophia is one of the most iconic and historically significant buildings in the world. Originally constructed as a cathedral by the Byzantine Emperor Justinian I between 532 and 537 AD, it was the largest cathedral in the world for nearly a thousand years. The building is renowned for its massive dome, which was considered an engineering marvel of its time and remains one of the greatest examples of Byzantine architecture. Over the centuries, Hagia Sophia has served different religious functions, reflecting the changing dynamics of the region. In 1453, after the Ottoman Empire conquered Constantinople (now Istanbul), the cathedral was converted into a mosque by Sultan Mehmed II. Despite these changes, Hagia Sophia remains a UNESCO World Heritage site. It is a major tourist attraction, drawing millions of visitors each year who come to admire its rich history, stunning mosaics, and intricate design.
