You know, why the Turks changed it, I can't say. Maybe they just liked it better that way...

How about if you post some sphotos of this structure, so the rest of us can decide whether "enhanced" or "ruined" is the more appropriate word?No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.Comment

And it is not "nationalistic" to state the obvious. That The church has been destroyed inside, the paintings and everything else have been destroyed so it looked better when it was not destroyed.
No, you are wrong.
The Muslims didn't now destroy the chuch, but made it look better.
If ANY destruction was done it was during the 4th Crusade when the west pillaged the Hagia Sophia.Last edited by Imran Siddiqui; July 18, 2002, 18:29.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another.

Oh, don't let's start. This is the worst part.I couldn't debate that.

as for who destroyed it Im not sure.
I know that when suleyiman entered it, it was not destroyed but he found his islamist warriors destroying it.
he hit his sambre in a pillar of the church and shouted: dont desotry this holy place, go destroy the city but not this temple.
apparently his wises were not obeyed later because the church is completely destroyed inside.Comment
