If you should sail to Trebizond or be converted…

Grab your last chances to visit “Byzantium’s Other Empire: Trebizond” at Koç University’s Research Center for Anatolian Civilizations on Istiklal Caddesi, Istanbul.  The exhibition shows the Hagia Sophia Church in this Black Sea city, which was a museum between 1968 and 2013, but was reconverted into a mosque, with the restored frescoes covered.
