Re: Queen of cities, ultimate guide for Istanbul
They’re different, Suleymaniye was built by Sinan whereas Blue Mosque (aka Sultan Ahmet Mosque) was built by Sedefkar Mehmet Aga.
At first glance, you may have difficulties to distinguish them but they’re really much different.
I’ll post their google earth images. It may be helpfull…
