Bursa is a large city in the Southern Marmara Region of Turkey, 20 km inland from the Marmara coast. It's the country's fourth-largest city, with a population of 2,161,990 in 2021, and with another million living in the wider metropolis. It's mostly modern, industrial and concrete-ridden, earning its living from textiles, agricultural produce and the automobile industry. However as the cradle of the Ottoman state, it is crowded with historic mosques, tombs, caravanserais, bazaars and parks, and in 2014, Bursa along with the nearby village of Cumalıkızık was added to the UNESCO world heritage list. Above it are the forests and ski slopes of Mount Uludağ.
