The Hagia Sophia is one of the great architectural wonders of the world. Check out pictures of the interior, it's a beautiful combination of the Catholic and Islamic traditions that have occupied the building during it's long history. It was built by Justinian I, who famously stated that his project outdid King Solomon's work, and this was pretty damn impressive given the entire thing was built in six years (some of it eventually collapsed, what I can I say, that's another story).

Gold has long been attributed to divinity, given it's sheen, mallebility, and resistance to temperature change. And the gold tiles have been in the Hagia Sophia, a name that literally means Holy Wisdom, since the beginning. Countless people have prayed amongst religious icongraphy adorning the walls, and there is a documented feeling of spirital awe upon entering the Hagia Sophia's main area. It's got spiritual energy in spades.
