Gaziantep is one of Turkey's major cities, located in the southeastern region of the country. Known historically as Antep until 1921, the city received the prefix "Gazi" (meaning veteran) as an honor for its resistance during the Turkish War of Independence.
The city has a rich cultural heritage spanning thousands of years, having been influenced by various civilizations including the Hittites, Romans, and Ottomans. Gaziantep is particularly renowned for its culinary traditions, especially its baklava, which has received Protected Geographical Indication status from the European Union. The city is also known for its historic copper craftsmanship, traditional textile production, and numerous archaeological sites.
The local museums house significant collections, including ancient mosaics from the Roman and Byzantine periods, with the Zeugma Mosaic Museum being particularly notable for its extensive collection of Roman mosaics recovered from the ancient city of Zeugma.
