Bülbül Hatun (Ottoman Turkish: بلبل خاتون; died c. 1515) was a consort of Sultan Bayezid II of the Ottoman Empire.

Life

Bülbül Hatun married Bayezid when he was still a prince and the governor of Amasya. After Mehmed the Conqueror's death in 1481, she came to Istanbul, and the same year, she followed her elder son, Şehzade Ahmet when he was appointed the governor of Saruhan, and then to Amasya.
