In the courtyard outside Yeni Camii

We have passed Yeni Camii (the new mosque, "only" about 400 odd years or so...) on every visit to Istanbul and shopped in the adjoining Misir Carsisi on numerous occasions but actually never been inside before. It was nice, very nice, though not quite as awesome as the Suleymaniye - my alltime favourite. We came during prayer times and so hung out in the courtyard for a bit, taking photos and watching latecomers perform their ablutions at the fountain in the centre of the court.
