batman province

Batman is a Turkish province in the south east of Anatolia. It was named after the Batman river, which flows though this area. The province is important because of its oil reserves and production. The oil refinery was founded in 1955. There is a 494 kilometers long oil pipeline from Batman to the Turkish town of Iskenderun. Cotton is the main agricultural product. A railway line connects Batman with Diyarbakir and Elazığ. The province consists of the districts of Batman (merkez), Beşiri, Gercş, Hasankeyf, Kozluk and Sason. Batman (147,347 inhabitants) is the provincial capital. The area is mainly settled by Kurds. The province is also of interest from an archaeological point of view. Sights include the Imam Abdullah Dervish monastery and the bridges of Camir Rızk and Hasankeyf.
