The Zeugma Mosaic Museum in Gaziantep is one of the largest mosaic museums in the world! Inside, thousands of years of mosaics from ancient Zeugma are on display. These mosaics are of top notch quality. The craftsmanship involved in creating them some many centuries ago is simply breathtaking.The Gypsy girl is a mosaic that has eyes that follow you similar to the Mona Lisa.


Halfeti was submerged under water due to the construction of a dam in the 1990, and a new town was built 15 kilometres away. As a result, the settlement is divided into Old Halfeti and New Halfeti. The old Halfeti can be reached by renting a boat, and it offers a nostalgic view of semi-submerged houses, trees, minarets, and monuments. One of the most iconic views is from the half-sunken minaret of Savasan village at Halfeti. The houses in Halfeti are made of stone, have two stories, and a flat roof. They are all parallel to each other, facing the Euphrates River.
