LOL! Is that the Blue Mosque? I've been there once but I don't remember the stinky feet! Maybe because I went during "off hours"....

Yes it was indeed.
I was there right after some 3000 people were in there. This was in April of this year. A very nasty stench permeated the place. They had all the doors and windows opened to air it out.

It looks impressive from the outside. The Sultan built it right across from the Hagia Sofia Church, which he had to outdo.
