Bulgurlu is an underground station on the M5 line of the Istanbul Metro in east Üsküdar.[2] It is located beneath Alemdağ and Gürpınar Avenues in the Bulgurlu neighborhood of Üsküdar. Connection to IETT city buses is available from at street level, one block south.

The station consists of an island platform with two tracks. Since the M5 is an ATO line, protective gates on each side of the platform open only when a train is in the station. Bulgurlu station was opened on 15 December 2017, together with eight other stations between Üsküdar and Yamanevler.[3]
