Mudurnu
A well-preserved old town of Ottoman timber houses, home to a 14th-century mosque built by Sultan Yıldırım Bayezid. It is a member of the Cittaslow network.
Mudurnu is a member of Turkey's Cittaslow network. Its old town spreads along a valley, with more than a hundred 18th- and 19th-century Ottoman timber houses. The houses have overhanging upper floors and white walls with timber frames. At the heart of the town is the mosque commissioned by Sultan Yıldırım Bayezid in 1382, along with a nearby historic bathhouse and an old market. The handicrafts and local snacks in the market are worth exploring. Mudurnu is about 55 km from Bolu, roughly an hour's drive, and can be combined with a visit to Lake Abant on the same day.
