[2025 Side Attraction] Travel Guide for Side Ancient City (Updated Apr)

Side Antik Kenti The old town stretches out towards the sea. It's about a 15-minute walk from the nearby parking lot, but there are rugged ruins lined up along the way, making for a spectacular view that makes it perfect for a stroll. I visited in May, and the weather was good enough to make me sweat. For those who don't want to walk much, there is a shuttle car that costs €0.5 one way, so I recommend that as well◎ The old town is lined with souvenir shops and restaurants aimed at tourists, and the prices are tourist prices. Ice cream is €4, so it's a bit expensive considering the cost of living in Turkey. There seem to be a lot of tourists from Europe, so the prices are listed in euros. It's a recommended spot where you can take a pleasant walk while smelling the sea. If you don't enter the museum, you can see the sights for ¥0. Looking at the reviews, it seems like the atmosphere is good from evening to night, so next time I'd like to go at night. #EuropeTrip #EuropeTourism #TurkeyTrip #SoloTrip

Antique Side is the main attraction in the Manavgat area. The ruins of an ancient Roman city attract the visitors from all over the world. We visited the place in July and the weather was very hot at that time. As it was high season there were crowds of people. You can walk to the attractions or take a special tourist bus. Temple of Apollo#Antiqueside is worth visiting beyond any doubt and it looks especially magical at night in the moonlight.

#EuropeanTravel #Side #Turkiye If you pass the ancient city ruins at the entrance of Side, you will come across a city of your own. It's not really a city, but the old town commercial district appears. There are many shops and restaurants. It's also nice to eat by the sea and relax while enjoying the Mediterranean sun. Since it's a city with many cats, cat lovers might enjoy it. If you walk a little, you will come across the sea and the ruins of the Temple of Apollo, which feels like a landmark of this area. If you come at sunset, the visual is truly a work of art. Since it's a small city, don't just look at famous places, but take your time and look around. There are quite a few places with nice views.

#EuropeanTravel #Side #Turkiye Side, which I came to on a day trip from Antalya.. In fact, Side itself is small, so there isn't much to see, but the city itself is a historic site, and it is said that Cleopatra also watched the sunset at the Apollon Temple, so it is definitely a beautiful place. Since Side is a historic site, every place you walk is a historic site..It is scattered here and there, and most of the things are unrecognizable,, but most of the places have disappeared and only the site remains, but since all you can see are the historic sites, it feels amazing in itself. However, if you come in the summer, you should be prepared for the heat, so an umbrella is a must..

A place full of history, full of story and legends, streets that make you feel that you are living in ancient ages. The ancient city is also full of beautiful cafes and boutique restaurants, an ideal place to relax and educate yourself on the history of the area. It is also extremely accessible from most hotels along the beach. It took us a 30 minute walk along the promenade. #turkey #historicallandmarks #localguides #familytrip #sidetrip #falltrip

⏰ Side Museum open daily : 8:30 AM–7:45 PM 💰 Side Museum Entrance Fee : 100 ₺ Side welcomes visitors in a Roman bathhouse which was restored and converted into a museum in the ancient city. It is an exciting place to visit as it has a lot of great artifacts which for the most part are not exchibited on the shelves but in a more natural way - inside the large Roman baths (dating 5th - 6th centuries A.D.) which were restored and converted into an archaeological museum and in the garden. You can feel a very special atmosphere there. The sculptures of Gods and the reliefs of the sarcophagi are absolutely spectacular and testify to the highest level of skills of the artists of Asia Minor. Despite of a very hot day, inside it felt pretty cool and there was a lot of shade which also contributed to the pleasant visit. It would be interesting to visit it, even if you are not a connoisseur of history. However, if you are a history lover, we would recommend to read some information about Side prior to your visit and also pay attention to the signs and inscriptions there. Enjoy your visit! #turkiye #side #antalya #manavgat #awesomepic #historytour #histourism #mytravellog #romanbath #romanempire #museumlover #historylovers
