Tirilye (Zeytinbağı)
Tirilye
A former Greek fishing village surrounded by stone houses, Byzantine church ruins and olive groves. The seaside seafood restaurants are well known.
Tirilye lies about 10 kilometres west of Mudanya. Formerly called Trilye, it was home mainly to Greeks until the 1920s, and it retains many stone-built old houses, a Byzantine church (now a mosque) and bell tower ruins. The village's sloping lanes are good for photography, and seaside restaurants serve fresh fish and local olives. It is busier with visitors from Bursa on weekends. You can reach it by bus via Mudanya, or hire a car and combine it with Mudanya.
