Bursa Province, Administrative province in northwestern Turkey

The province encompasses 18 districts across the Marmara region, featuring mountains, thermal springs, and Mediterranean coastal areas near the Sea of Marmara.

The region gained prominence as the first Ottoman Empire capital in 1326, establishing itself as a crucial center for administration and commerce until 1363.

The province maintains traditional silk production methods, textile manufacturing, and food specialties including Iskender kebab and regional candied chestnuts.

The central city connects to Istanbul through frequent ferry services from Mudanya port, while an extensive road network links all provincial districts.

Mount Uludag, rising 2,543 meters within the province borders, transforms from a summer hiking destination into Turkey's main winter sports center.
