HAGIA SOPHIA WEBQUEST

What is it like in Istanbul?

General video about Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque, and Istanbul. 

Watch this video and take notes about the city and its famous landmarks.

Wait, what's this city called?

Watch this video of the song "Istanbul (Not Constantinople)" by They Might Be Giants. If you need/want to read a copy of the lyrics, click here: http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/theymightbegiants/istanbulnotconstantinople.html

Throughout its history as a city, why did/does Istanbul have more than one name?

So I'm in Istanbul... now what? Hagia Sophia!
