Istanbul Archeological Museum, Turkey
One of my favourite museums in one
of my favourite cities. Again the museum had a no flash
policy, but I'm getting a bit more used to the new
camera. You'll notice there are other components of
Babylon's Ishtar Gate here, to complement those in
Berlin. I'll post up some pictures of Aghia Sophia and
other monuments separately
