Aleppo Governorate, Administrative region in northern Syria.
The governorate extends over 18,482 square kilometers of diverse terrain, including plateaus, lowlands, and desert areas bordering Turkey, Raqqa, Hama, and Idlib.
The region transformed from an ancient settlement into a major trade center during the Ottoman Empire, connecting European and Asian commercial routes through its strategic position.
The population of over 4.8 million people includes Arabic, Kurdish, Turkish, and Armenian speakers, reflecting the multicultural nature of this northern Syrian territory.
The semi-arid climate creates temperatures between 15 and 20 degrees Celsius, affecting agricultural production that relies mainly on seasonal rainfall patterns.
Mount Simeon district contains numerous Late Antiquity churches with distinct architectural elements that remain preserved despite regional conflicts.
