E-rx.onlineLocal Notes for Side
Side combines sandy beaches with ancient ruins and the Temple of Apollo, so sun and walking on stone paths are typical. After a day on the beach, a sunburn, an ear infection or a stomach bug can appear rapidly, so it helps to know a doctor is a message away.
Travel Guide to Side
Side began as an ancient Greek city on a small peninsula, and after it was abandoned the ruins became known as Eski Adalia, meaning Old Antalya. Tourist tip: walk to the Temple of Apollo at sunset, visit the theatre and the museum, and browse the craft and souvenir shops of the old town. Side is also a handy base for Aspendos and Perge, and its sandy beaches suit swimming and boat trips.
