Iznik, historically known as Nicaea, is an ancient city located in northwestern Turkey. The city has played a significant role in both Byzantine and Ottoman history, most notably as the site of the First and Second Councils of Nicaea.

Iznik is particularly renowned for its contributions to art history through its distinctive ceramic production, which reached its peak during the Ottoman period in the 15th and 16th centuries. The city's famous tiles and pottery, characterized by their vivid blue hues and intricate floral designs, decorated many of the empire's most important buildings.

Today, Iznik preserves much of its historical heritage, including well-preserved Roman walls, Byzantine churches, Ottoman mosques, and traditional pottery workshops. The city is surrounded by olive groves and is situated on the eastern shore of Lake Iznik, providing a scenic backdrop to its rich cultural landscape.
