Mudanya (also: Mudania,[2] Greek: τα Μουδανιά, ta Moudaniá [Pl.]) (the site of ancient Apamea Myrlea) is a municipality and district of Bursa Province, Turkey.[3] Its area is 369 km2,[4] and its population is 108,011 (2022).[1] It is located on the Gulf of Gemlik, part of the southern coast of the Sea of Marmara. Between 1875 and 1948, it was connected with Bursa by the Mudanya–Bursa railway.[5] Mudanya has only an open anchorage usable in calm weather. The town produces olive oil and there is a pier used by local fishing and cargo boats.
Mudanya is the namesake town of one ("Mundania Road") of four London streets (the others being Marmora, Scutari and Therapia Roads) that were named in remembrance of the Crimean War[6].
