Step back in time and immerse yourself in the rich history and culture of Bursa, Turkey, as depicted in this photograph of the Old Thermal Baths. Located in the fourth largest city and the first Ottoman capital, Bursa is a place where ancient traditions meet modern life. Historically known as Prussa and later Brussa or Brousse, this city nestled on the northwestern slopes of Mount Uludag in the south of the Marmara region is known for its verdant parks, gardens, and vast forests, earning it the nickname Yesil Bursa or Green Bursa. The Old Thermal Baths, a significant historical site, offer a glimpse into the city's past. The baths, which date back to the Ottoman era, are renowned for their therapeutic hot springs and have been popular for centuries for their health benefits. The interior of the baths is a feast for the eyes, with intricately designed arches, domes, and mosaics adorning the walls. Men of all ages and backgrounds can be seen lounging and washing in the pools, continuing a tradition that has been passed down through generations. The baths also hold great significance in Turkish history, as they contain the mausoleum of Osman Bey, the founder of the Ottoman Empire, as well as the tombs of two famous Sufi saints. This photograph captures the essence of Bursa's history, culture, and natural beauty, inviting us to explore the wonders of this ancient city and its thermal baths.
