Visiting;

Perge: Perge is said to have been founded circa 1000 BC, though settlements may well have existed here even earlier than that. It is an impressive ancient city with archaeological features such as the wonderful colonnaded main streets, Roman Gate, Roman Baths, Hellenistic Gate, Agora, and the impressive 2nd century AD Nymphaeum. Especially, the Roman Stadium is one of the best-preserved examples of the ancient world, which had an original capacity of around 12,000 spectators. Perge Ancient City is a must-see for historians and photographers.

After having a well-deserved lunch, you will visit Manavgat Waterfall, where you can experience the white, foaming water flowing powerfully over the rocks, the beautiful scenery and shady tea gardens.

Aspendos: Although not much remains of the ancient city, it still has the best- preserved example of a Roman theatre of antiquity, the theatre of Aspendos alone makes the trip worthwhile. The theatre is still used today and hosts the annual International Opera and Ballet festival, with the participation of opera and ballet companies from around the world, and an audience of about 10,000. This would obviously be a good time to visit the theatre, but it’s an awesome sight even without the show.

Side: Side is one of the best-known classical sites in Turkey. Its name means pomegranate in the ancient language. The ancient city is situated on a small peninsula about 1 km long and 400 m wide. You can stroll along the charming beach, visit its antique theatre, harbour or archaeological museum. There are plenty of opportunities for shopping in the traditional Turkish sales booths.
