Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan reconverted the historic Chora church, one of Istanbul`s most celebrated Byzantine buildings, into a mosque on Friday. This comes a month after opening the famed Hagia Sophia to Muslim worship. The mediaeval Church of the Holy Saviour in Chora, built near the ancient city walls of Constantinople, contains 14th-century Byzantine mosaics.
