Gölyazı

Located on the shore of Lake Uluabat, Gölyazı brings together traces of the ancient settlement of Apollonia ad Rhyndacum and the traditional fabric of a village on the same peninsula. Its walls, church and ancient ruins, together with the lakeside, fishing boats and an old plane tree, make it one of Bursa’s most distinctive stops, especially for photography enthusiasts and those who enjoy slow travel.
