Gaziantep

Gaziantep has a beautiful Mosaic Museum. Most of the mosaics are from Zeugma. It is also known for its Copper Market where artisans pound intricate patterns into all sorts of copper urns, kettles, etc... Venture off to a side street and find other artisans making the tools of everyday life: cheese wheels, rolling pins, skewers for shish kabob, leather saddles, etc. Gaziantep is also known for their pistachios and baklava made with pistachios.
