The Turkish city of Samsun witnessed a large influx of Syrian refugees who left their country because of the difficult circumstances and turned the northern city into a new homeland.
About 30,000 refugees living in the northern Turkish city of Samsun, mostly Syrians, have been the center of the city into semi-provinces, Zaman newspaper reported.
The city of Samsun has some 30,000 refugees, most of whom live in the city's Elkadem district, where refugees who make up small districts in the city center open their own shops, such as cafes, restaurants, real estate offices, bakeries, telephone shops and barber shops.
Perhaps the most prominent sign of Syrian presence is obvious, the number of owners of Turkish shops to use panels in Arabic to increase their profits.
Within a short time, refugees occupied houses and shops on Istiklal Street, which is the city's most vibrant street, until they were concentrated in the city center.
Walsh Samson, Osman Kaynak, said in a brief statement that the city has about 30,000 refugees and about 8,000 children are receiving their education.
