I liked mosaics very much.Mosaics have geometrical and floral motifs.The
tesserae are made of gold, silver , terracotta and colored stones.The figurative mosaics inside
Ayasofya date from after the ıconoclastic age (730-842).

While I was looking around, felt like living in ancient times.All parts of museum
were very fascinating.I talked over with museum manager and asked many questions about
museum.
