The region code is '''27'''.
It's not very hard to find rides with truckers from [[Istanbul]] to Gaziantep, you just have to find the right spot.
==Hitchhiking Out==
Gaziantep is a surprisingly large city with almost 2,000,000 inhabitants, so unless you intend to stay/sightsee for a while in the city, try to get a lift that will take you further from the city when crossing west to east (i.e. [[Osmaniye]] to [[Urfa]]) and vice versa as it is likely a very long walk to the edge of the city from downtown. If you happen to cross the city west to east, keep in mind that [[Nizip]] is a good place about 40 km east of Gaziantep to get a lift to Urfa.
