LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Ana Navarro’s journey in Turkey continues with her husband Al Cardenas, as the two spend their summer vacation together.
‘The View’ co-host has spoken about Turkey’s clean waters, delicious food, and much more.
This time around, Navarro has decided to speak about the country’s religion, customs, cultures, and beliefs, and her fans have been thrilled about it.
In a detailed Instagram post, Navarro highlights some etiquettes that must be followed by people who visit religious spots in Turkey.
Ana Navarro talks about her visit to a mosque in Turkey
Ana Navarro posted a picture of herself in a mosque, where she stood barefoot and her hair was covered. Navarro captioned the post, “I did touristy stuff today. Don’t ask me why I look like I only have one foot and that one foot looks so ginormous. I’m a very decent size 8. Ok, here are a few tips."
"When going into a Mosque, like Hagia Sophia or the Blue Mosque, you need to remove your shoes and cover your hair and shoulders and you can’t wear shorts/mini-skirts, etc. I wish I’d worn socks. Walking barefoot on a carpet where millions walk is a little yuck to me," she added.
"You should wear clothes that meet the requirements because the alternative is wearing some poncho thing you buy there or a musty, drab, olive scarf they lend you to cover your hair," she continued.
Navarro continued as she spoke about how one should follow the set of rules and wrote, “They are opening their doors. It’s their country. Their norms. Their beliefs. We are guests here and need to be respectful and comply. That being said, the architectural, historical, cultural, and religious significance, are worth going there. You really can’t come to Istambul and not visit these sights.”
Fans applaud and thank Ana Navarro
‘The View’ co-host received praise from her fans, one commented, “You look great no matter what you wear. And you’re right, observe the culture and customs of the country you visit. Good for you for expressing that. 👏”
Another fan wrote, “I love your dress!! And I agree on being respectful of the local cultural norms. When I was visiting the Vatican, I covered up. It’s just what you do.”
Some fans have also thanked Navarro for this information as one wrote, “Thanks for posting your trip to Turkey, Ana. I’m going next year, and this is excellent information. Socks, hat or scarf, no shorts, noted!”
Another fan commented, “I’m planning to visit next year. Thanks for the tips!”
And of course, fans have also gushed over Navarro’s look in the picture as one fan wrote, “Wow, so beautiful,” and another commented, “You look mah-velous.”
