In the back streets of Istanbul's Sultanahment district (the historic section near the Blue Mosque, Aya Sofya, etc.) are old wooden hoses originally built for nobles in the 17 and 18 hundreds. Some are converted into hotels. Some are in virtual ruins. Wooden buildings are a novelty in Istanbul.
This casualty lies awaiting either restoration or replacement is between the Blue Mosque (Sultan Ahmet Caii) and the Lesser Aya Sofya mosque (Kucuk Aya Sofya) - not to be confused with the Aya Sofya of tourist interest.
