YOUNG PARTICIPANTS FROM THE TRNC DISCOVERED BURSA’S WAQF HERITAGE

5/14/2026

In the seventh edition of our “Dream, Discover, Dedicate” Youth Project, we brought together 26 students from the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC) with the traces of our waqf culture in Bursa.

Within the scope of the program, visits were made to the Grand Mosque (Ulu Cami), the Green Mosque (Yeşil Cami), and the Sultan Murad I Hüdavendigar Complex, while the historical heritage of the city was explored at the Koza Han and the Grand Bazaar (Kapalıçarşı).

The students also witnessed the city’s deep-rooted history at the Panorama 1326 Bursa Conquest Museum.

"As for the issues related to the foundations, it is known that foundations constitute an important asset of our country. I hope that all members of Council of Ministers together with the Ministry Of Religious Affairs and even the Supreme Assembly examine this issue with great care and that this great institution is protected from devastation and made useful for our country in order to ensure that our country can benefit from this asset as necessary."
