BURSA, A WALLED CITY
STONE WALLS STILL RING PARTS OF THE OLDEST
NEIGHBORHOODS OF THE GREAT OTTOMAN CITY
Bursa is the first capital city of the Ottoman Empire, the heart of the famed Silk Road, and resembles an open-air museum, a true reflection of Turkey's Ottoman heritage.
Nestled at the foot of Mount Uludağ, the city is known for its lush, green scenery, healing hot springs and Turkish baths, and is also world-renowned for winter tourism.
