Hatay
Hatay Province is located along the coast of the Mediterranean Sea in Turkey.
It is nestled right up to the border of Syria.
There is evidence of settlements existing on the site of the city since the early part of the Bronze Age.
It has belonged to various groups throughout history, including the Akkadian Empire, the Amorites, and the Hittites.
The region derives its name, however, from it’s Neo-Hittite rulers, who flourished from around 1180 BC to 700 BC.
Later, it became the location for the Syrian tetrapolis of Antioch, Seleucia Pieria, Apamea, and Laodicea under the Seleucid empire.
After 64 BC, it spent the rest of antiquity under Roman rule, the city of Antioch serving as an important administrative and cultural center for the region.
Not long before World War II, the Republic of Hatay was briefly set up, but it only existed for about a year, with both the French and the Turks ruling over it.
Hatay officially became a province of Turkey in 1939 after a referendum.
Hatay Province is home to the second largest group of Roman mosaics in the world.
That exhibition is in the Antakya Museum.
St. Peter Church is another site of significance in the province.
The church has been carved out of rock, and it is a common destination for Christian pilgrimages.
The land inside of Hatay is mostly mountainous, although about a third of it is plains area.
The Nur Mountains march through the province, with the highest peak being Migirtepe.
The landscape is also marked by the Arabian-Nubian Shield, which is a large area of exposed crystalline rocks.
Visitors will also find the Orontes River running through the region.
