Wearing a Muslim-style headscarf and walking in stockinged feet, the Queen toured one of Turkey's most important mosques during her first state visit to the country in 37 years. Her Majesty, who had been wearing a wide-brimmed hat and white shoes, adhered to the Islamic dress code, which requires women to cover their heads and all visitors to remove their footwear, during the visit to the 15th century Green Mosque in the eastern city of Bursa. The party listened to an Imam reciting a passage from the Koran and visited the tomb of Sultan Mehmet I, who built the holy complex. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/1956520/Queen-wears-headscarf-at-Turkish-mosque.html
