Full description

Drive to Bursa for a daily guided tour in Bursa. Despite its smaller size, many of Bursa’s Ottoman landmarks rival those of Istanbul. Best of all, this lush city, known as “Green Bursa”, rests at the base of Mt. Uludag, a forested peak once thought to be the mythical Mt. Olympus. Enjoy a magical day of incomparable architectural wonders and natural beauty. We travel by ferry to Yalova, then by luxury coach to the city of Bursa*, which dates back to the 2nd century B.C. The first capital of the Ottoman Empire, Bursa is one of the greatest treasure houses of Islamic architecture.
Green mosque and Green Mausoleum will be the first stop in Bursa, both built by 5th Ottoman Sultan Mehmet Çelebi in the 15th century. Then we will climb up to Uludag Mountain by cable car and have fun with magnificent city view. You will want to take photos every second while passing through a forest with lots of tree species. You will go to the top of the mountain which is 2.486 meters above sea level and feel the fresh air. Next, you will see the gorgeous Old Tree which is more than 600 years old. While going back to our hotel in Bursa. Overnight in Istanbul. (B/L)
