Review:

Nestled in the foothills of Mount Uludag, Bursa is one of the country's most important industrial centers. However, the city is also a great place for a visit. As the original capital of the Ottoman Empire, Bursa boasts a dizzying array of beautiful mosques and külliyes, impressive examples of early Ottoman architecture, fascinating museums, and traditional thermal spas. It's possible to see the city's main sights on a day trip from Istanbul, but there are plenty of wonderful accommodation options for anyone who would like to spend more time enjoying all the city has to offer.
