Istanbul III

The view from the Sultan's palace looking north up the Bosphorus.
The "patio" at the harem in the Sultan's palace.
the library at the Sultan's palace.
Not sure what they called this -- it was a detached building where the Sultan watched games and things, looked out over the water, meditated, took naps.   All in all a great place to while away some time (or wile away, depending on the Sultan)
The entrance to the palace from the side of Hagia Sophia.
