You mean Bursa, right?
No, I haven't been to Bursa, and I live in Turkey. But I've heard that it's worth visiting. There's this famous ski center, Uludağ, there and it gets busy in wintertime.

Hi,
Bursa is famous for its Green. People call it "Yesil Bursa" that means Green Bursa. If you are muslim, the mosques and the other religious worthful places can be interesting for you. There are Ulu Cami (Great Mosque), Yesil Cami (Green Mosque) etc... Nature of Bursa is beautiful, especially in winters. Its snow is something like dream :) Bursa is on the downhill of the Uludag mountain. There existsTurkey's biggest ski center. If you are a woman, there are also many shopping places which have cheap and different choices. And also Bursa is famous for its "Kestane sekeri" which is a dessert made of chestnut.
In addition, Bursa is very near to Ankara, Istanbul and Izmir, which are the biggest cities of Turkey.

Hi bursa is a city of turkey located to the northwest of country, It's an ordinary city but if you interested about history (nicea, ottoman empire etc), or want to do ski, or spa centers it can be ok for you, its simple to reach this city but if you will come with plane you have to land istanbul first. I recomend you istanbul if you have not seen before.

Its name is bursa. It is very good , popular 5th biggest city in turkey. And it has the 6th developed industry in europe. There are many good places in bursa. But if you ask my idea , First go to Uludag for skiing. You can go istanbul to bursa by buses and it lasts i tihnk 5-6 hours

Do you mean Bursa? Not much there, industrial companies, busy place. The nearest 'touristy' place may be Uludağ (for skiing).
