Tophane
Tophane is an important urban terrace that brings together the historic hillside housing the tombs of Osman Gazi and Orhan Gazi with the area surrounding the Bursa Clock Tower. Opened in 1905, the clock tower was also used in the past to watch for fires thanks to its commanding position over the city. It is an excellent spot for viewing central Bursa from above and experiencing the memory of the early Ottoman period in one place.
