Bursa Botanic Park

Bursa Botanic Park is a large green space in the city featuring diverse plant collections from different regions of the world. The park is divided into several distinct areas, including a rock garden, a collection of scented plants, and a lake inhabited by various bird species.

The park opened in 1998 and arose from efforts to create green spaces and research facilities in the growing city of Bursa. Its founding reflects a turning point in urban planning as Bursa was developing into a more modern and greener metropolis.

The garden displays landscaping from different cultures, including French and Japanese styles arranged side by side. Visitors can discover traditional houses spanning several centuries that preserve the region's architectural heritage.

Visitors can walk through different areas on broad pathways, and there are also bicycle trails and exercise areas available. Information panels are positioned throughout to help identify various plant species.

The park houses specialized collections, including a selection of strongly scented plants that visitors experience while walking through. The adjacent lake attracts turtles and waterfowl, giving the space a wildlife-friendly character.
