        Religious Sites & Mosques

        If you are visiting mosques like the Blue Mosque, stricter etiquettes apply for both men and women:

        • Women:     Must have their hair, shoulders, and knees completely covered.
        • Men:     Should wear long pants (no shorts) and shirts that cover the shoulders.
        • Footwear:     All shoes must be removed before stepping onto mosque carpets. Bringing      your own socks is recommended, though many major sites lend wraps and      headscarves for free.
