The fact that it is big can be observed till approaching the heights of the resort, perfectly visible for tens and even hundreds of kilometers from afar ... Uludağ is the highest mountain in Anatolia, and it stands in the middle of its plateau, like Olympus. By the way, we remembered this famous mountain in Greece not by accident. The father of European literature, Homer, has compared the magnificent Uludağ with Olympus mountain, when he still had his sight, during his journey here. And Homer wrote that deities of Achilles Greek pantheon, while sitting on a mountain of Uludağ, were looking at the violent assault of Troy by soldiers.
