Transportation: Getting to Aleppo from Istanbul

    Getting TO/AROUND: Book a flight on Onur Air from Istanbul to Adana, in southern Turkey. I paid $92 for a roundtrip flight. Taking a bus would be slightly cheaper, but you save a day's worth of travel. From Adana's airport, take a taxi to the bus station. There are frequent buses to Antakya/Hatay. This will take three hours. It's a nice ride through the mountains and some stretches offer views of the Mediterranean Sea. I advise staying in Antakya at least one night so you can visit St. Peter's church. The next day, you can either take a bus or a service taxi to Aleppo. It will take three hours, which includes the time spent crossing the border and customs.

     i got lost in the citadel and it took awhile for me to wander the grounds and finally find the front entrance again. Its a fascinating place to see, the various little rooms, theatre,etc.
