Green Tomb

The Green Tomb (Turkish: Yeşil Türbe) is a mausoleum of the fifth Ottoman Sultan, Mehmed I, in Bursa, Turkey.

[1] In addition to the sultan's sarcophagus, it contains seven other tombs: those of his sons Mustafa, Mahmud and Yusuf, his daughters Selçuk, Ayşe and Sitti and his wet nurse (Daye Hatun).

Set amid cypresses on top of the hill in the Yeşil neighborhood in Bursa, the mausoleum stands higher than the rest of the complex.

[2] The entry portal is crowned with a semi-umbrella vault and has muqarnas niches above marble seats on both side of the entrance.

Inside, past the carved wooden doors, the royal catafalque stands on a platform at the center surrounded by seven other tombs.
