One of the two obelisks next to the Blue Mosque is Theodosius Obelisk. Theodosius Obelisk is said to have been built by Theodosius I of the Eastern Roman Empire, but it is said that it was originally part of the temple built in BC. The obelisk is engraved with characters of the time at that time and it is a pillar that makes you feel the length of history. It is also a tourist route from the Blue Mosque, and there are also many tourists. |
