Orhan Ghazi, who was the son of Osman Bey, the founder of the Ottoman Empire, and also referred as the second Sultan of the Ottoman Empire, took Bursa on 6 April 1326 and annexed it to the state territory. After that day, Bursa becomes a city where the belief of Islam is spread but everyone's freedom of belief is respected... Very important scholars and sultans grow in there, but they are not enough, it becomes the apple of the Ottoman’ eye and becomes the capital.

Bursa, which had been the capital of the Ottoman Empire for 39 years and was shaped by early Ottoman architecture and has been rebuilt in a kind of way, carries hundreds of years of architectural works within its structure almost in the glory of the first day.

Today, Bursa, which is part of the indivisible integrity of the state of the Republic of Turkey with the proclamation of the Republic, is one of the most developed cities in Turkey for its history and nature tourism.
