What Features of the Hagia Sophia make it an example of Islamic art?
Hobiesmith7
When the Hagia Sophia was converted into a mosque in 1453, the Christian features were removed, and Islamic faetures, like the minbar and mihrab, plus four minarets, were added. Even though the mosque has now been secularized, it still retains its Islamic appearance.
