JUDAS TREE FESTIVAL
One of the symbols of Bursa is the Judas tree which had been very common in the very old times and has reached today. It also gives its name to a festival arranged as a symbol of solidarity, tolerance, love and sisterhood for centuries. Bursa Metropolitan Municipality has been keeping this tradition alive with the “Emir Sultan Tradition and Judas Tree Festival” at the end of April or on the first day of May every year.
