Gölyazı

Located on the shores of Lake Uluabat, Gölyazı brings together the traces of the ancient settlement of Apollonia ad Rhyndacum and the character of a traditional village on the same peninsula. Its city walls, church and ancient ruins, along with the lakeside, fishing boats and centuries-old plane tree, make it one of Bursa’s most distinctive destinations, especially for photography enthusiasts and travelers who enjoy slow-paced exploration.
