The Sinan Books Poetry Store is located in a church. Its onion-shaped top reminds me of Russian and Turkish architecture. The interior is arranged in an innovative and compelling way, enticing visitors to browse the goods on offer. You can also buy small religious ornaments as well as attractive cultural and creative products.
