Worth seeing

The Nymphaeum of Side, a monumental fountain complex, was built during the reign of Antionius (140–180 BC). The 12 m high and 52 m long walls are still preserved. The fountain was fed by a branch of the aqueduct from the Taurus Mountains. The aqueduct that supplied Side with water from the Taurus Mountains was a 25 km long aqueduct built over 2,000 years ago. According to ancient sources, in the area of today's Oymapinar Dam, slaves had to cut canals through the rock. Through such canals and aqueducts, the water was conveyed to the nymphaeum in front of the city gate in Side, and from there via further aqueducts to the consumption points in the city.

Temple of Apollo Built: mid-1st century AD, renovated in the second half of the 2nd century AD. Dimensions: Stylobate: 17 x 30 m Peristasis: 6 x 11 Apollo was one of the principal gods of the city of Side. Thirty-two 8.9-meter-high columns of white marble with Corinthian capitals encircled the naos of the Temple of Apollo. Architraves decorated with Medusa heads rested on the columns. Between them, triglyphs (three grooves) can be seen. On the entrance façade of the temple, facing the sea, various ornaments with plant motifs are located next to the Medusa heads. In the Byzantine period, a 50 x 50-meter basilica was built to the north of the two temples. The Temple of Apollo and the adjacent Temple of Athena were demolished, and the area was converted into the atrium of the basilica. The five visible columns with their entablature, which today form Side's landmark, were re-erected in the 1980s as part of the reconstruction work. Apollo In Greek and Roman mythology, Apollo (also spelled Apoll) is the god of light, healing, spring, moral purity and temperance, as well as prophecy and the arts, especially music, poetry, and song. He was also the god of healing and archery. As the son of Zeus and the goddess Leto (Latin Latona), conceived in Didyma, he, like his firstborn twin sister Artemis (Latin Diana), was one of the Olympian gods, the twelve principal deities of the Greek pantheon. The sanctuary at Delphi, the most important oracle site of antiquity, was dedicated to him. Source: tuerkei-antik.de/Tempel/side_apollon.htm

The Colonnaded Streets (Sütunlu Caddeler) are undoubtedly one of the most interesting parts of the ancient city of Side. These streets, reflecting the city's splendor, were once a place where citizens would stroll, enjoy their leisure time, and shop in the numerous nearby shops. There are two main thoroughfares, or two main streets. Entering through the north gate, the main street leads south to the theater and then to the harbor. There is another street directly east of the gate, the street toward the east gate. The streets were lined with colonnades and adjacent shops and workshops on the left and right.
