La Mosqu\u00e9e bleue est un symbole pour moi. C’est le vrai d\u00e9but du voyage, le premier point important en Asie sur la route de l’Inde. Elle se trouve pr\u00e8s du c\u00e9l\u00e8bre Pudding Shop, alias le \u00ab\u00a0Lale Restaurant\u00a0\u00bb. C’\u00e9tait un lieu de rencontre c\u00e9l\u00e8bre pour les hippies et autres routards sur la route entre l’Europe et l’Inde, le N\u00e9pal et l’Asie – la \u00ab Route de l’Inde \u00bb comme on l’appelait. J’avais seize ans la premi\u00e8re fois que j’y suis all\u00e9, mais je suis rest\u00e9 \u00e0 Istanbul, et je n’ai continu\u00e9 jusqu’en Inde que deux ans plus tard. En fait, c’est dans ce m\u00eame Pudding Shop que j’ai ensuite trouv\u00e9 l’information qui m’a permis d’aller jusqu’\u00e0 T\u00e9h\u00e9ran en voiture.<\/p>\n
La Mosqu\u00e9e Bleue, appel\u00e9e comme \u00e7a pour les fa\u00efences \u00e9maill\u00e9es \u00a0bleues qui ornent ses murs int\u00e9rieurs, est une gigantesque mosqu\u00e9e \u00e0 six minarets construite au d\u00e9but du 17\u00e8me si\u00e8cle par le Sultan Ahmed I. Il souhaitait construire un lieu de culte islamique qui serait encore plus impressionnant\u00a0que la Hagia Sophia qui est \u00e0 c\u00f4t\u00e9 de lui. Aujourd’hui, les d\u00f4mes en cascade et les six minarets de la mosqu\u00e9e Sultanahmet dominent l’horizon d’Istanbul.<\/p>\n
J’ai lu que le Sultan Ahmed Ier n’avait que 19 ans quand il a d\u00e9cid\u00e9 de faire construire cette mosqu\u00e9e. Elle a \u00e9t\u00e9 construite pr\u00e8s de la basilique Sainte-Sophie, sur le site de l’hippodrome antique et du palais imp\u00e9rial byzantin. Et le Sultan est mort un an apr\u00e8s l’ach\u00e8vement de son chef-d’\u0153uvre, \u00e0 l’\u00e2ge de 27 ans. Il est enterr\u00e9 \u00e0 l’ext\u00e9rieur de la mosqu\u00e9e avec son \u00e9pouse et ses trois fils.<\/p>\n
