[August 2012] Our Turkey tour came to Bursa.
Here we visited Ulu Mosque (Grand Mosque) with my scarf on.
It is a large mosque with a faountain in the centre.
In any mosques, men and women are separated.
According to our guide, when they pray, they get up and down in Islamic religion and if a woman moves next to you, a man’s mind would be filled with wrong thought.
Therefore, they are separated.
I wonder if it is true…
I thought mosques are holy places, but here, there were a lot of families with young children who were running around, screaming.
It looked more like a park or something.
