Gulhane Park
Don't rush through it! Take your time to explore different corners of the park - there are sometimes hidden spots that offer beautiful views and photo ops!
Make sure to wear comfortable shoes. The pathways are lovely but can get a bit uneven - I wish I had left my flip-flops at home!
There's a little cafe in the park that has great views. I suggest stopping by for a cup of Turkish tea; it’s not pricey and the ambiance is just fab.
Uludag National Park
Try to take the cable car in the morning, around 9 AM. There's less crowd, and you'll have the best chance to enjoy the views with fewer people around. Trust me, it's totally worth it.
I suggest checking the weather before you go. It can change quickly up there! When I visited, I wasn’t prepared for the chilly winds and missed out on some views. Bring layers just in case!
Yildiz Park
Wear comfortable shoes! The park is quite large and you’ll want to explore all the hidden corners without your feet killing you
Kaplikaya Growth Center
Resat Oyal Culture Park
Bursa Botanical Park
My advice is to bring your own snacks and drinks. There are some cafes, but they can be overpriced. I spent way more than I planned just for a bottle of water.
I think getting a map of the park at the entrance is a good idea. I missed a few stunning spots because I didn't have one. It's really helpful to plan your route and see everything!
