Agora and the Tuha temple
Side, AgoraIn the old town of Side there is a very interesting building. It is called the agora. So in ancient Greece called the largest of the market areas: there were gathered and then there was a trade. There were tents, temples, special rooms for artisans, and much more.
Side Aqueduct
Side, Roman aqueductThe aqueduct in the city of Side is located in the north-western part. The closest thing to this landmark is the bus stop number 639. In the city itself from the aqueduct there were water pipes - they can be found in the museum.
Manavgat waterfall
Side, Manavgat WaterfallThis waterfall is located 3 kilometers from the city of Side and not far from the city of Manavgat with the same name. Moreover, the Manavgat waterfall is an artificially created dam, which was created when a water reservoir with the same name was made on the river: it was such a height difference that was created for the hydrotechnical purposes.
City walls Side
Side, City WallsOn the perimeter of the ruins of the old city in Side are city walls, the history of which is more like an action-packed thriller. You can get to them by bus No. 639 - you need Side Otogari. The attraction has no time for work, and the entrance ticket is also worthless.
Fountain of Nymphaeum
Side, Cd. LimanIn ancient times, the Greeks often built not too large sanctuaries, which were dedicated to water nymphs. They were semi-circular buildings with columns, which most often occupied three or four floors. And a little later the name "nymphome" was preserved behind all the buildings that decorated the water sources.
The name of the city can be translated as "grenade", and this is one of the best places on the coast. A mild Mediterranean climate, views of the surrounding ruins - what could be better for the historian and for fans of combining beach holidays with a rich excursion program?
Most of all the greatness of the ancient architects conveys a huge three-story fountain of Nymphaeum, Agora and the Temple of Tycho, where you can see the city square, where brisk trade was conducted, is not far behind. But another of the city's attractions is the Manavgat Falls, a manmade work of modern times, which became one of the main tourist magnets in Side.
In Side, not only for the sake of viewing the antiquities: lie on the warm sand of the peninsula, bask in the sea - this is what the city can generously reward you after sightseeing and walking along the walls. Here, from the Romans was not only an aqueduct, an amazing miracle of ancient engineers, but also many other things - from the ruins of the theater and unique underground water storages (true, dried up in our time) to other traces of Roman rule.
