Tourists remove their shoes and put them in bags before entering the Sultan Ahmet Mosque. If you want to visit the mosque, you must also dress modestly, with long pants and long-sleeve shirts at least to the elbows and knees. Skirts are also okay as long as they go below the knees, and ladies tops should not have low neck lines.
