The world's longest, this aerial tram travels 5.5 miles from the city to a nearby ski resort & park.
Exciting and a must try. It’s very quick turn around. The view is very beautiful. It may be hazy coz of the glass but in some areas, you will
have a very beautiful view. Just don’t move a lot and enjoy the breath taking scenery.

The views are crazy! My wife and I paid extra for the VIP car to skip the line and have the car to ourselves. It definitely will help you’re already feeling anxious. You can see the whole city. The cable cars are not cleaned inbetween rides so if the people before you leave trash it will be on there during your ride. Once you reach the top there are restaurants and even places for kids to play and to zip line. Great experience!

One of must-to-do in Bursa is cable car 🚡 ridding. It is considered one of longest Teleferik in the world (9km). It takes 20 min to reach the top. Best timing is one hours before the sunset where you will enjoy the sun horizon.
Make sure to wear winter clothes.
Khalid Al Mahruqi — Google review
One of the amazing experiences I had in Turkey. The cable way has 2 stops. The first one (Satialan) is at 1635 m altitude. Once out, you will fund many activities and things to do for the whole family. You can have nature walks in the amazing fir forest, play at the adventure park, rent a bike or ATV, have a picnic in nature and many other things. You can easily spend the day there especially for families. The second stop (kurbagakaya) is at 1810 m altitude. It has ski resorts and chalets. The ride in the cable way itself is amazing since you go up Uludag mountain, then ride almost horizontally, then ride to to the top very close to the trees where you can enjoy the fir trees. It is a must when in Bursa.

Caution, it can be scam if you don’t read my review, I went to the teleferik on 20/08/2023 at12:00 and I bought 6 tickets for my family (3 adults and 3 childs ) in ticket window the staff was promoting to take VIP and i bought, however the services and room with no view (picture attached) gave to me is totally different than what is in the website, i talked to the staff regarding the services and room is not as mentioned in the site, he said the one in the site is closed, nevertheless the price i paid is 17250 TL is incredible compared to what i got for, even the food was not as I briefed in the counter, they gave us as family two plates of chips and individual grill plate containing few pieces, it is really unfortunate of what I experienced, finally be aware of this place because even they didn’t replay to my remarks in their formal site, as conclusion dont take VIP ticket or Private cabin, not crowded, caution caution caution

This Seljuk-style mosque is one of Bursa's most dominant and durable landmarks. Commissioned in the late 1400s by Sultan Beyazit in a compromise after pledging to build 20 mosques, it features 20 small domes and two massive minarets. The mimber (pulpit) boasts fine wood carvings, and the walls feature intricate calligraphy.

The sense of tranquility and reverence within the Ulu Camii was truly captivating.
Not only is Bursa Ulu Camii a place of worship, but it also holds historical significance as one of the oldest and largest mosques in Turkey. It serves as a testament to the rich cultural heritage and deep-rooted traditions of Bursa. The courtyard and surrounding gardens further enhance the overall beauty of the mosque, providing a tranquil space for visitors to relax and soak in the peaceful ambiance.

This enormous Seljuk-style shrine (1399) is Bursa's most dominant and durable mosque. Sultan Beyazıt I built it in a monumental compromise – having pledged to build 20 mosques after defeating the Crusaders in the Battle of Nicopolis, he settled for one mosque, with 20 small domes. Two massive minarets augment the domes, while the giant square pillars and portals within are similarly impressive. The mimber (pulpit) boasts fine wood carvings, and the walls feature intricate calligraphy.Bursa's Karagöz shadow-puppet theatre reportedly began with Ulu Camii's construction.

Whether you're a history buff, an admirer of architectural wonders, or simply love exploring new places, the Grand Mosque of Bursa offers a richly rewarding experience. You'll walk away with not just memories, but also a greater understanding and appreciation of Ottoman period architecture and culture.
The most unique feature of the mosque is the inclusion of a “fountain” (şadırvan) used for wudhu in the center of the masjid, which is very unusual for a mosque. The sound of the water from the central fountain contributes to a serene and contemplative atmosphere.

We visited here during Friday / jummuah prayer. It’s very crowded, better we come early if we want to pray inside mosque.
Free taste and unique food has been shared outside mosque after Friday prayer.
The fountain at the center mosque can be use for wudhu / ablutions.

Visiting the Grand Mosque of Bursa today was an experience I’ll cherish forever. This architectural marvel, not only steeped in history but also bustling with the vibrant life of today, offered a striking vision of cultural fusion and devotion. The mosque stands as a testament to the grandeur of the Ottoman era, embodying both the spiritual and artistic zenith of its time.
Upon entering, I was immediately enveloped by the tranquil yet powerful ambiance that radiates throughout the mosque. The interior design is absolutely amazing, a breathtaking panorama of Islamic art and craftsmanship. The intricate calligraphy adorning the walls, coupled with the elegantly detailed mihrab, speaks volumes of the meticulous attention to detail that went into the mosque’s construction. The vast prayer hall, dominated by the magnificent central dome, is surrounded by smaller domes, each contributing to a sense of divine ascendance.
The use of light in the mosque is another remarkable feature. The numerous windows allow for a play of light and shadow, which creates a serene and meditative environment, inviting introspection and connection. This, coupled with the richly decorated prayer rugs, lends an air of warmth and comfort to the vast space.
The mosque is not just a place for worship but also a bustling center of community life. The courtyard and surrounding areas are vibrant, with people of all ages coming together, reflecting the mosque’s role as a center of social and religious congregation. The sense of community is palpable, making visitors feel welcomed and part of something greater.
What stands out most is the mosque’s ability to simultaneously present a grandiose vision and yet not lose the intimate, personal touch that invites individual reflection and peace. It’s a place where history and contemporary life meld seamlessly, offering both a lesson in architecture and a profound spiritual experience.
The Grand Mosque of Bursa, with its stunning interior and vibrant atmosphere, truly epitomizes the beauty and depth of Islamic culture and heritage. It’s a must-visit for not only those interested in architecture or religion but anyone looking to experience the soulful essence of Bursa.

The mosque in Turkey with the biggest inner congregation area is the twenty-domed building. Ottoman Sultan Bayezid I built the Ulu camii, or mosque, between 1396 and 1399. This mosque was built in 1399, as written on the front door.
According to Islamic experts at the time, this mosque was regarded as the fifth most prestigious place in Islam, after Makkah, Madina, Jerusalem, and Damesk.

Koza Han is a historical and multi-level bazaar that showcases Ottoman-era architecture and various retailers. It served as the primary hub for trading silkworm cocoons, which played a significant role in developing Bursa's textile industry. The inn boasts classical Ottoman-style architecture and opens to Uzun Carsi through an exquisitely crafted blue-tiled door at the backyard. It remains one of the city's prominent silk centers where visitors can find numerous renowned brands.
Beautiful place! Came early in the morning as soon as the shops open to avoid a crowd. Friendly people and great bargains for good money! Walked around for almost 3 hours and yet I didnt feel like going home. Definitely a good bazaar for those who love shopping or even for those who would like to sit down and have a cup of çay.

Koza Han is a historical site in Bursa, Turkey, known for being one of the oldest and most significant markets in Turkish history, especially renowned for its trade in silk. Constructed in 1491 during the Ottoman Empire by Sultan Bayezid II, its primary purpose was to bolster the silk trade, a crucial industry in the Ottoman economy at that time. The name "Koza Han" can be translated to "Silk Cocoon Market," indicating its original use as a center for silk cocoon trading.
Architecturally, Koza Han is a stunning example of Ottoman design. It is organized around a spacious courtyard, which is a common feature in Ottoman market design, providing a serene and communal atmosphere for trade and social interaction. The courtyard is surrounded by two levels of shops and storerooms, which back in the day, were bustling with silk merchants and craftsmen. A striking feature of the Han is its central fountain, which was historically used for both practical and ceremonial purposes.
Over the centuries, Koza Han has retained its significance and charm, remaining a popular spot for both locals and tourists. Today, it houses a variety of shops selling not only silk but also other traditional Turkish goods and souvenirs. It's also a place where visitors can enjoy Turkish tea or coffee in its beautiful, historic setting, soaking in the atmosphere that bridges the past and present.
Koza Han is not just a market; it's a cultural and historical emblem of Bursa, reflecting the city's rich heritage in the silk trade and its pivotal role in the commercial history of the Ottoman Empire. For anyone visiting Bursa, Koza Han offers a unique glimpse into the past, where the spirit of Ottoman commerce lives on amidst its ancient walls and bustling alleyways.

The Osman Gazi Türbesi is an Ottoman tomb located on a hilltop in Bursa, Turkey. The building has been reconstructed from a Byzantine structure and includes a terrace with cafes that offer stunning views of the surrounding area. While some visitors find the tomb to be overly decorated and not aligned with Islamic teachings, it remains an important historical site for many people. The tomb itself is elevated above floor level, which goes against traditional Islamic burial practices.
It was pleasure to visit the resting place of Osman Gazi, the founder of Ottoman empire. It's on hight but not that someone can't walk. Easy walk about 15 minutes from grand Mosque, i did with young kids and no issues. From the top you get a nice Bursa city view.

I like the terrace with the Cafes and the nice view of Bursa more than the tomb. The tomb is somehow excessive and overdone and too much in decoration. And this is not the true teachings of Islam. The tombs should be with floor level. I liked Ertugrul tomb more. But it is nice to visit the terrace with the view.

The place was dignified, turbe, guards, security... The sultans who came later showed much more self-love. I conclude this because they built rich palaces and sumptuous mosques, large harems... Osman Gazi seems to have taken the lead, among other sultans, in putting the state first.

During my visit to Osman Gazi Türbesi, I was truly impressed by the exceptional level of protection provided by the specially uniformed soldiers stationed there. Their presence added a sense of reverence and importance to the site, honoring the legacy of Osman and Orhan Gazi, the founding fathers of Turkey.
As I stood before the Türbesi, I couldn't help but feel a deep sense of gratitude for the courageous leaders who laid the foundation of Türkiye, the homeland of Turks. It was a humbling experience to offer my prayers and pay respects to Osman and Orhan Gazi, whose contributions shaped the course of history.
The serene atmosphere surrounding the Türbesi allowed for a peaceful reflection on the remarkable journey that led to the birth of a nation. It serves as a powerful reminder of the rich heritage and enduring spirit of the Turkish people.
I highly recommend a visit to Osman Gazi Türbesi to anyone interested in delving into the history and paying homage to the remarkable individuals who paved the way for the Turkey we know today. It is a place of great significance that will leave you with a profound appreciation for the nation's origins and the indomitable spirit of its people.

The religious institution Green Tomb is an octagonal tomb in Bursa, Turkey, that was built for an Ottoman sultan in the early 15th century. The tomb enjoys a hilltop location and is surrounded by mature cypress trees.
Yeşil Türbe(Green Tomb)
The mausoleum of 5th Ottoman sultan Mehmed I Çelebi (and several of his children) stands in a cypress-trimmed park opposite Yeşil Camii (Green Mosque). During his short rule (1413–21), he reunited a fractured empire following the Mongols' 1402 invasion. Despite its name, the türbe (tomb) is not green; it has blue Kütahya tiles outside that postdate the 1855 earthquake. The structure has a sublime, simple beauty, the original interior tiles exemplifying 15th-century decor. There is also an impressive tiled mihrab.

After Yıldırım Bayezid's defeat in the Battle of Ankara, Prince Çelebi Mehmed, who was in Amasya, one day invited Molla Ali to his presence and said: "Oh Molla Ali! Have you learned a lesson from the incident that happened? The calamity that happened to my father Yıldırım Bayezid and Can you think of the reasons for the troubles? You see, each of us has been separated. My brother Mûsâ Çelebi walked against Îsâ Çelebi and sat on the throne in Bursa. My brother Süleymân Çelebi sat on the throne in Edirne. While the enemy is afraid of us, now we have become a laughing stock to the world. In particular, the discord and corruption of my brother Süleyman Çelebi, who lives in Edirne, is feared. The good will and zeal I carry towards religion and the state has made me even more sensitive in the face of these events. Let's go on a pilgrimage with you, abandoning the idea of crown and throne!” Çelebi Mehmed was talking and cryingat the same time. In the evening, they both went to bed and prayed for the intention of an opening. Çelebi Mehmed saw his grandfather Murâd-ı Hüdâvendigâr in his dream. Emir Sultan was with him. Giving him a sword and a saddled horse; "Come on, my hero! Establish the principles of religion!" they said. Although Çelebi did not want to ride a horse, he saw that he had to do so in desperation and moved towards Gallipoli. On the same night, Molla dreamed that he was in Bursa and saw Çelebi Mehmed on the throne and Musa Çelebi under the throne. Thereupon, Mehmed Çelebi moved to Bursa and ascended to the Ottoman throne. He became the owner of the Ottoman throne as he saw in his dream.

The Green Mosque, also known as the Mosque of Mehmed I, is a part of a larger complex on the east side of Bursa, Turkey, the former capital of the Ottoman Turks before they captured Constantinople in 1453.
The name comes from its exuberant decoration with green and blue tilework. Inscriptions and endowment deeds date the construction of the mosque between 1419 and 1421/822-824 AH and attribute the work to architect Haci Ivaz Pasa.

The Green Mosque (the Mosque of Mehmed I), is a part of a larger complex on the east side of Bursa, Turkey, the former capital of the Ottoman Turks before they captured Constantinople in 1453.
The Green Mosque was commissioned by Sultan Mehmed I Çelebi, who ruled from 1413 to 1421, after a fight against his brothers to reunite the Ottoman Empire.[3] The mosque's construction was begun in 1412 and, according to the inscription over its entrance portal, it was completed in December 1419 or January 1420 (Dhu'l-Hijja 822 AH).[4][5] Construction was supervised by architect and patron of the arts vizier Hacı İvaz Pasha, who had been a commander under Mehmed I.[6] Upon his death, Mehmed I was buried in a mausoleum called the Green Tomb, commissioned by his son and successor, Murad II, located within the complex.[3] Construction of the tomb was completed in May 1421.

The İnkaya Historical Plane Tree, a symbol of the city, is a towering tree that has stood for centuries. It reaches an impressive height of 35 meters and boasts branches that extend up to 18 meters in diameter. This ancient tree is estimated to be around 610 years old and is a popular tourist attraction. Visitors can park their cars at the nearby Otopark for a fee of 10TL and take a short walk of approximately 150 meters to reach the site.
It is a lovely cafe worth visiting, this tree is huge over 600 years old. Its size was really shocking to me, and how big and long the branches are and still growing.
Recommend if on your way to somewhere, but i wouldn't go that far to see the tree.

Such an interesting place! With it having a cafe under, it was unexpected. It was amazing how old it is and how much it has seen. It gives an amazing perspective on the earth’s timeline. I went during the late fall so it was kind of chilly and just wet. Not much to do around because it was raining so much but that’s nature! I do suggest taking a look up here because you can drive around and look at the beautiful scenery of Bursa’s mountains and their ranges.

Reşat Oyal Culture Park: During my Eid break, I went to this park.
The total area of Reşat Oyal Culture Park is 393,000 square meters. Bursa's Reşat Oyal Culture Park first opened its doors in 1955. I love this park because, as spring arrives, so many new leaves and flowers sprout around it. This park has an abundance of flowers along every path that can make your life's stress disappear. There are lots of tulip blooms in the park, including red, yellow, and pink ones. That was incredibly fascinating!!
The park includes tea gardens, restaurants, the Bursa Archaeology Museum, the Conservatory Building, the Open Air Theatre, and an amusement park.
The name of the amusement park is Luna Park or Altin Park. Because of the Eid season, it was packed with kids and their families.
This theme park offers an enormous selection of rides. These include the Atli Carinca, Ferris Wheel, Crushing cars, Adrenalin Max, Gandola, Mini Train, Octopus Ride, Crazy Dancing, and many more

A large panorama with associated museum, showing the conquest of the city of Bursa by the early Ottomans.
The panorama shows the surrender of the city of Bursa to the Ottomans. The defenders held out after a 23 year siege, according to the museum. Finally the city was surrendered and the panorama shows the aftermath of surrender. The painting is well done, with Roman ruins scattering the area. The depictions are idealised and anachronistic. The Romans are depicted as Romans from the time of Augustus, rather than Eastern Romans from the 1300’s. The subject matter might be seen as quite nationalist, so it is probably more for a Turkish audience. After viewing the panorama, there is another section of the museum, with a video showing the life of Osman I, and other exhibits about the early Ottomans.

The Emir Sultan Mosque is a spectacular example of Ottoman rococo architecture and features towering minarets. Built in the 1300s, it was rebuilt in the 1850s and is a popular destination for religious tourists.
Of all the mosques we visited in Bursa, this one stood out the most due to its unusual medieval themed exterior design. It is also a nice area, not too touristic, everything quite clean. Behind the mosque you have a great view of the city. We definitely enjoyed coming here.

The Muradiye Complex is a historic landmark located in Bursa, Turkey. The complex was built by Sultan Murat II during the Ottoman era and comprises of a mosque, madrasa and tombs of sultans. The complex is situated in a park and features a beautiful seminary built in 1426 along with the equally impressive Sultan Murat II Camii. However, the most interesting feature of this site are the 13 imperial tombs located within its cemetery.
This complex is set in pleasant gardens with a small cafe for refreshments. The mosque with the is very impressive, commissioned by Sultan Murad ll it contains 12 tombs(türbe)most belonging to the relatives of the Sultan. The mosque was completed in 1426, fire damaged the mosque in early 18th century, and one of the minarets collapsed due to an earthquake in the 19th century.,. The complex houses a Madrasa, Bath, and Maradiye Hospice. The Madrasa (school) is now a museum. It was the last complex built by an Ottoman Sultan in Bursa, Murad ll what is the father of Mehmet, the conqueror. Some of the tombs have is Iznik tiles. The museum has beautiful copies of the Quran. I found this to be a beautiful and relaxing place, despite the fact it must attract many tourists and local people.

The Complex of Sultan Murad II was the highlight of my Bursa visit. The interior of the mosque is one of the nicest we have visited in Turkey.

We were pleased we visited this place and the walk through the neighborhood was also interesting. Highly recommended.

One of the most interesting aspects of the museum is that it includes pictures and information about professions and handicrafts that were once popular in Bursa.
The Museum of the Turkish city of Bursa, Bursa Kent Müzesi, which contains within it many archaeological holdings that tell the details of this natural city in all its important historical stages, such as the Ottoman era, the era of the Sultanate’s transformation into a republic and many others after that.

A compact neat city museum. As of summer 2023, still not a word in English, which strands Antiquity section to your knowledge/intuition, but the halls dedicated to XIX/XX centuries are still fun to explore, I'd argue. Takes about 30min this way. Free admission.

Nice museum with a great ethnographic and bazaar area. Unfortunately all explanation are only in Turkish, so you cannot understand too much. It was free when I visited. Lots of good places to eat in the surrounding area.

A very much nice place. Entrance is only 2 liras, you can use the bus card to go in. The place is nice and clean and the music playing all the time was very nice too. Walking inside was organised as well, you need to follow the foot signs on the ground to walk through it. The only problem was that all instructions were in Turkish language only.

This museum has the majority of the writen information in Turkish, but foreign visitors can easily use Google Translate to understand the story of the city.
Great collection of items and newspapers, bringing the visitors back in time.

It’s free. So why not come. It’s not in English which sucks but the museum is probably one of the best set ups I have seen in Turkey. Takes about 1-2 hours walking a through it. Lots to see. Definitely worth to come.

It's a nice museum with a nice variety of subjects presented. The artifact descriptions are all in Turkish though, no other languages were available. There was just one exhibit that had one sentence in English that I found.

The set up in this museum is fabulous even by Western standards, I really wished they had English panels for everything because it totally deserves it. I loved it despite understanding a limited amount of the presentation.

It has 19th and 20th century artifacts, MOSTLY.
Much recent history that one can relate.
Podyum Park is a contemporary shopping center with outdoor dining, stylish boutiques, and theme parks. It offers an array of restaurants, shops, and cafes that cater to families and individuals alike. The atmosphere is unique for Bursa as it stands out from the rest of the city. The place has a lively ambiance that is open, vibrant, diverse and perfect for spending quality time with loved ones or enjoying some alone time.
A great place that has multiple restaurants, shops and many cafés. The place is great for families, hangouts and also if you are alone. It has all waht a great day needs. It feels a different place than the rest of bursa, at least for me.

Shopping mall?!
this is somehow misleading.
it is a park including many restaurants and cafes, the area is very crowded at night, si if you are seeking some place for relaxation you are certainly in the wrong place.
It is strongly recommended for group of young people sitting together or want to walk nearby.
It is alsi a little bit far from the city center, anyhow I was asking for some place to spent hours during night in Bursa, someone recommended this place and he was right, if I were him I was recommending this place also.

Múltiple restaurants, café and bars that are open at any time of the day. The only thing that it lacks is free parking as it seems all of it is valet. It also needs a bigger parking lot, specially on weekends.
