Was wonderful to sit and imagine all the things that used to happen here. Again, a lovely part of history still available to us. A man was playing a flute when we were there and the reverberation was magnificent. Beware of young local lads offering to take your phone and take a pic of you there. You then have to pay!

Reviewed By Satin2UK - Side, Turkey
Great value and lots to choose from, some really nice jewellary pieces perfect for nights out.
The turkish delight was the best I'd ever tried so fresh, I was very surprised as I thought I wouldn't like turkish delight, but this was really special and not too sweet as I had expected.
I will be getting plenty as they are perfect to give to family as gifts.

First at all I'd like to point that it is very difficult to find the place from the main road, because there aren't any signs of it, before you turn to the small road which will lead you to the Hip Notics. The place itself is nice. There are 3 lakes, pool, djacusi, restrooms, lockers (some of them need to be fixed). Parking is free, however you paying for regular board 10 euro and for the board which allows you to do obstacles another 15 euro. Don't forget the park fee which is 35 euro per person! They don't have a price list for you to check it, you gonna have to believe it what thay saying. Hold on, this is not it. You paying for Powered 9 TL even though it is 5 TL in the menu. They don't bother to change it. Park is great, but this is Turkey, guys, not the US or England. I don't understand why it costs less to do the same in Florida. Anyway, stuff is not that nice as people describing, they don't smile and helping you after you ask them couple of times. There is a nice guy, who was teaching my friend how to ride a boar, and the same guy is in charge for mild lake. His name is Sulaiman. Very nice person. All in all the time we spent there was good, however we here expecting more.
4. Aspendos Ruins and Theater

4.5 based on 963 reviews
The best-known attraction among the ruins of Aspendos is the great theater, an amazingly well preserved vestige of Roman architecture that may be as impressive as Rome's own Colosseum.

Come to Aspendos Theatre.... incredible view of history and not expensive. Bring the kids; there is ice cream and water outside.
Get away from Antalya Beaches and feed your mind. One of the few and rare 150 B.c. Ruins you can still see. Bring a camera and wear comfortable shoes... a must see!

Beautiful outdoor theatre 'Aspendos'. Great views to the huge stage.
Very beautifully choreographed. It's definitely a must see. I've seen it twice now and would definitely see it again.
When buying the excursion trip, I wouldn't bother with the meal before hand as it was a tiny portion and really not worth it.
Again great show no a definite must see
As my friend described it 'the turkish version of Riverdance' :)
8. Monumental Fountain (Nymphaeum)

We saw the Fountain from the footpath as we walked into Side from the bus station. As with most of Side's ruins there has been extensive restoration rather than conservation which spoils things for me somewhat. There is an information board at the roadside but there is no access actually to the Fountain.

Stopped off whilst visiting ancient ruins. Very small not sure it was worth either the time or money. The Amphitheatre opposite is worth a visit.
10. Aspendos Bridge

Reviewed By Kingsley F - Cossonay, Switzerland
Plenty of Roman masonry still existing as a base for this mainly Seljuk bridge built on the Roman foundations. Absolutely lovely to visit, very romantic, very much a part of the strong Roman and pre-Ottoman heritage of Aspendos. It was very hot, about 2pm, we stopped to nibble at the little 'roadside caff' by the bridge, called 'Kayikci restaurant'. We ordered fresh orange juice, fresh lemon squash, ayrans, teas, coffee, aubergine salad, some grilled meatballs and chicken, and lots of salad. Everything was delicious and very very inexpensive, and this is a kind of friendly Turkish restaurant that fills an instant need when visiting in Nature. Delightful and highly recommended, the whole experience!
