Firstly, I want to talk about some traditional foods in this city."İskender Kebab" is most famous and most delicious food in Bursa. It is including pitta bread,beef slices,tomato sauce and melted butter and its coming with the turkish yogurt and some cooked vegetables.

Moreover, Bursa has a so famous dessert its Turkish name is "Kestane Şekeri" , English translation name is also chessnut sweet . It is producing from the chessnut ofcourse but its cooking with sugar. Actually chessnut is important  in Bursa.I'm moving on the another things about Bursa. This cities history goes back to ancient times . It was an important city during the ottoman period . Some  of the Ottoman sultans were buried after he died in Bursa so Bursa has so many important cemeteries and memorials.In the photo at the bottom of this post you will see the first sultan of the Ottoman Epire's cemeteries.
