What a place to visit. Not only are their many many ruins including under the flooring (glass walkways) the Old Town was so picturesque that I took so many pictures. Perhaps go early in the day or later evening to avoid the sun. The museum and ampitheatre are a must.

It was a georgeous open air museum. So strange that this is out there in the open. A must see if you are visiting in the area. We were in a Belek and drove to Side with a rental car. Free parking in the shade as well with hong Kona orchid flower trees everywhere! It was so beautiful. You don’t have to pay an entrance fee to see everything, only to enter the amfi theatre. It’s not cheap, but if you consider that the rest is free of charge, it’s not so bad. We really enjoyed it a lot. There are lots of shops where you can buy something to snack or drink and plenty of restaurants in the beginning, the middle and the end. In the middle, the town square as you will, have glass tiles so that you can what lies beneath it. It is amazing to see how there are buildings underneath the current roads and buildings. It’s a building site with lots of excavations going on so I’m already curious how everything looks 10 years from now. A must see!

It is free to check out these ruins. There is a fee for the amphitheatre. The city build a nice walkway so that you don't get run over by the numerous cars and bus heading toward the harbor. The temple is at the end of the site near the harbor.
