Side
Side (pronounced see-day) is a resort town and a classical historic site in the Antalya Province of Mediterranean Turkey.

Today Side is one of the few sites where you can see Ephesus-like well-protected Roman ruins and modern constructions literally side by side. Get inManavgat is your first point of entry if you plan to get to Side by bus. From Manavgat, some bus companies offer minibuses to Side from otogar (bus station) free of charge. There are also very frequent minibuses (dolmuş) from downtown Manavgat which should not cost much more than a couple of Turkish liras. Side lies 2 km south of main highway (D400) of Mediterranean Turkey, so it's also easy to get there by car. Get aroundSee
