'''Batman''' (pronounced ''baat-maan'', not like the name of the superhero) is a city in [[Southeastern Anatolia]].
==Hitching Hitchhiking out==
It’s somewhat harder to attract a ride here than the rest of Southeastern Anatolia, if you can call waiting beside the road up to 10 -yes, ten- minutes hard, that is.
=== West towards [[Diyarbakir]], [[Urfa]], [[Elazığ]], [[Malatya]] ===Walk to the edge of the city on the D370 road. Once you reach the edge of the suburbs, you can start thumbing. ===Northeast towards [[Kozluk]], [[Ziyaret]], [[Bitlis]], [[Tatvan]]===
There is a roundabout at the northeastern exit of the city, with a big-box type store (named something like ''Osmar'' or ''Grosmar'') at the side. About 100 mt down the road, you can start thumbing, but it would be easier for drivers (and on their vehicles) if you walk the slightly uphill section of the road starting immediately after the roundabout and hitch on the top of the hill. It’s not such a hard walk up.
There is also another road south of Batman heading to [[Bitlis]]/[[Tatvan]] via [[Kurtalan]]. However, according to locals, northern route through [[Kozluk]] has more traffic and thus better to hitchhike.
=== South, Southwest or East towards [[Category:Southeastern AnatoliaHasankeyf]], [[Mardin]], [[Midyat]], [[Iraq]], [[Siirt]] ===Batman is small, so you can easily walk to the intersection of the D370 and D955 roads on the southwestern edge of town. From there, you can begin hitchhiking in whichever direction you choose. == Nomadwiki & Trashwiki == {{nomadwiki}}
