Sideの歴史
Side was founded by the Greeks in the 7th century BC and became a major centre of trade and culture in the ancient world. The city's rich history is evident in its well-preserved Roman ruins, including the impressive Temple of Apollo and the Theatre. After a period of decline, Side was rediscovered in the 19th century and has since become a charming tourist destination, known for its picturesque harbour, sandy beaches, and vibrant nightlife. The city's architecture reflects its complex history, with a mix of ancient ruins, Ottoman-era mosques, and modern buildings. Today, Side is a thriving resort town that seamlessly blends its rich past with modern amenities and attractions.

Sideのトップ観光スポット
💡 Skip the paid entry inside. The best free views are from the path behind the theatre near the harbour. Go late afternoon for golden light on the stone.
💡 Walk all the way to the western end near the Temple of Apollo for a quieter stretch. Come at sunset for the best light, but avoid the expensive harbourfront cafes—buy a drink from a shop on the main street instead.
💡 Bring a towel or mat; there's no shade. Go early morning (before 9am) for calm water and no crowds. The current can be strong, so swim near the rocks where it's sheltered.
💡 Bring your own water; the park's single kiosk overcharges. It's also a good spot for birdwatching—look for white storks on the aqueduct arches.
💡 Go on a Wednesday when it's less crowded. The bath's original heating channels are still visible in the floor of the first room.
