Nice drive up the mountain on narrow Street, parking 20tl
Very nice view around, and people up there sell fresh fruits, souvenir, cosmetics.
Café seating spread under this Antique tree.
It took its name from Inkaya Village, one of the first villages of the Ottoman Empire. The 600-year-old plane tree is world-famous for its magnificent appearance. Its diameter is 3 meters and its height is 35 meters.

It is a little off the beaten path so ensure that your driver knows the route well or else turn on the Google Maps. Once there, appreciate the neat streams of crystal clear water passing underneath the giant tree. It is equally popular in locals and tourists. Its quite a sight to see 600+ years old tree still producing leaves and is as fresh as new.

I was in Bursa for one night and one day. No one speaks English and yes I can confidently say that.
Taxi can cost a lot and I am a budget traveler.
Somehow I figured out to come here I need to take bus 1 C from a bus stop close to big mosque where my hotel was. My hotel manager helped here in broken English. He warned buy ticket before enter Bus.
So I bought 2 ride ticket from a vendor.
1 C came after 30 minutes of waiting no one could answer my queries so I waited.
I was joyous when it arrived. It was 30 odd mins ride uphill with beautiful view.
The place has a huge humongous tree 600 year old with cafe below. Good luck ordering as no waiters spoke English. Somehow I ordered Turkish tea and the cheese bread. No menu is here which adds to difficulty level.
It is a place to relax to chill. Nothing to do but have some tea and some food. Take a small stroll buy fruits.
I enjoyed the calmness.
FRAUD alert for tourists. The waiters tried to rip me off by saying pay 40 Lira for ‘observation’. I just ignore. Finally they gave me a slip with two boxes checked took it to counter. I paid 12 Lira and left.
I had to wait another 35 mins for bus. I typed this review in the mean time hoping it helps others.
1C guys Bus 1 C and you cannot pay in Bus. Buy ticket and board Bus. Buy 2 tickets if planning to return by bus.

Located on the skirts of Uludağ (Mount Olympos) in the province of Bursa, this is a huge, historic tree over 600 years old. Aside from the well-known landmarks in the city, this could be a location to visit. Around the tree there are tea gardens that serve snacks and beverages; and the air is clean and cool. From the little gift shops nearby, one can buy handmade items produced by the local villagers.

Inkaya Tarihi Cinar is a memorial plane tree that is thought to be more than 600 years old. The tree is 37 meters tall and around10 meters in diameter, its big (13) main branches provide around 53 meters of cool shade.
The tree is located at the village of İnkaya, one of the first villages of the Ottoman Empire, it is located on the way going towards Uludag around 10 km from the center of Bursa.
In the way to the tree, you will go through a lot of small shops selling seasonal fruits and souvenirs. A Cafe and restaurant (İnkaya Şelale Cafe & Restaurant) is located beneath and around the tree.

This 610 year old tree and its surroundings should be a "must visit" attraction for Bursa visitors. The massive tree, the apparent freshness belying its age, its all encompassing shade is a pleasure to see. Do enjoy the mountain breakfast served in a restaurant under it and stroll around the shops, picking up a bottle of mountain bee honey. The fact that it is just on the way up to the teleferic in Bursa, makes it an easy stopover.

Inkaya Tarihi Cinar is a very old and large sycamore tree in the Inkaya neighborhood south of Bursa. It is about 600 years old, and is named after Inkaya, one of the first villages of the Ottoman Empire. Its leafy canopy shades a small park, with 13 main branches. It is claimed to be 35 m high with a trunk 3-4 m thick and over 9 m in circumference. As I sat under this massive tree, I felt a living link with the past. It started growing at the dawn of the Ottoman Empire (Osman I became Sultan in 1398). The expansive green canopy overhead invited rest from the hustle-bustle of Bursa city life and contemplation of the centuries in which a great empire rose and fell. Nearby there is a barbecue restaurant, tea garden (hot Turkish tea and fresh pastries), grocery store and gift shops. There were stalls where village women were selling handicrafts, vegetables and fruits grown in their gardens. I took the 1C bus to get to Inkaya (metro 1 and 2 also go there). The park is open at all times with no entry fee.

A more than 600 years old living tree in the city center. If I were living in Bursa I would go there at least once in a week in summer at afternoons.

We visited on a Saturday. Beautiful tree and we had a nice time, except for the mass of visiting student groups and tour groups. We had breakfast under the tree. 25TL per person for a very average Turkish breakfast (Serpme Kahvalti). At the end, they charged us an extra 15TL for a pot of tea when in actual fact tea is included as part of the breakfast cost. (I think because we're foreigners = foreigner tax). Very disappointed.
