Renowned artist M. Izzet Efendi meticulously crafted the exquisite calligraphic pieces found within Hagia Sophia.

Weekday mornings tend to have lower attendance compared to busy afternoons and weekends. The best time for a visit would be in the morning shortly after its opening at 09:00 am, with an average of around 5,000 visitors during weekdays and approximately 12,000 during weekends.</p><p> </p><p>The number of tourists at Hagia Sophia varies depending on the season.
