Cumalıkızık is a neighbourhood in the municipality and district of Yıldırım, Bursa Province in Turkey.[1] Its population is 707 (2022).[2] It is 10 kilometers east of the city of Bursa, at the foot of Mount Uludağ.[3] Its history goes back to the Ottoman Empire's foundation period. The village is now included within the border of the Yıldırım district as a neighbourhood. Cumalıkızık was founded as a vakıf village. The historical texture of the village has been well protected and the civilian countryside architectural structures of the early Ottoman period are still intact. Because of this, Cumalıkızık has become a popular but still unspoiled center for tourists.[4][5]
