Bursa: Cumalikizik Village, Grand Mosque & Koza Han

Things to Do in Bursa

Bursa, Turkey's fourth-largest city and former Ottoman capital, offers historic mosques, thermal baths, and Uludag mountain for skiing — genuine major-city infrastructure at a lower cost than Istanbul. This collection ranks what's worth doing. **Good to know:** Ulu Cami and other mosques require modest dress (shoulders, knees covered) and women need a headscarf — scarves are usually available at the entrance if you forget. Uludag's cable car (teleferik) has real queues on winter weekends — go on a weekday if you can. Bursa is genuinely humid in summer; the thermal baths are more appealing in cooler months. Ranked below: what's worth doing.
