RE: Travel with me #121 : The Hagia Sophia, Istanbul!

Wow, I wonder whether they had concept of earthquake proofing buildings back then (probably not) but it would make sense that the structure has stood so well through history, including surviving major earthquakes through the centuries. Whether or not it was intended is another question! .. does some research :D

I assume the people of the time had some idea of what survived and what did not through centuries of trial and error.
