I went to one of the smallest provinces of Turkey: Kilis. It is located in the south on the Syrian border. From the outside, it seems just like a small place but when you look closer there are big things happening. I went there to find out more about the history of Kilis, the taste of its food and how people live together.

By looking at the map of Turkey you will notice that it does not only share its borders with Syria, but it’s also the longest border with a length of 909km. That’s longer than Germany from south to north.

There is no other country in the world that hosts more refugees than Turkey does and Kilis, right at the border, accepted more Syrian refugees than there are local residents living there.
So how does that work? How does life in such a small province change for the residents? Many things changed, two different cultures had to adopt to each other and started to transition into one.
People share their jobs, houses and social spaces with Syrian refugees, like sport facilities, spaces at the bazaar and educational institutions. and for that Kilis even got nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize in the past.

Life is still far from easy for Syrians in Turkey, but Kilis has many human rights and refugee organizations that do their best to integrate Syrians into society, even tho hundreds of thousands still live in camps nearby.

Just a few kilometers from the Syrian border Kilis is for many people not only a new home, but a safe zone and one of the few good examples that Syrians and Turks can live together peacefully and even enrich each other's lives.
