Gaziantep is well served by flights,
buses and expressways for cars, but
train service has mostly been suspended.
Turkish
Airlines has daily flights from Istanbul and Ankara to
Gaziantep's Oğuzeli Airport (GZT).
The city center is usually considered
to be either the ancient Kale (Fortress),
or the intersection of two major streets:
Istasyon Caddesi and Atatürk Bulvarı/Suburcu
Caddesi (map).

Şehirlerarası Otobüs Terminali) is
6 km/4 miles northeast of the Kale/fortress.
