Greek Amphitheater

The amphitheatre is amazing. The problem is it cost 300tl per person to get in and to be honest there is not much to see in the amphitheatre itself.
The rest of Side is well worth a visit we had an amazing day here but i feel 300tl to get into such a small area of it is expensive especially when you can see almost as much from the side of it. There isn't Any more info for the extra money just a different view. We spent literally 15 minutes in there. It's lovely but not worth the cost. Especially when the ticket doesn't even cover the museum.
If i came again I'd view from the side and spend more time in the rest of the free area.

Just one of many sites to see/experience in ancient Side ruins. It is well preserved but a bit less grand than the theater at Aspendos. We were fortunate to tour both sites in the same day so the comparisons were fresh in our memory. Side however has so much more to explore with the temples, fountains, arches etc. than Aspendos. They also have a very good museum with much Greek artifacts and comprehensive info regarding the site and its history. Well worth the time especially if you are on a cruise docking in either Antalya or Anlaya.

A lovely amphitheatre on the route into side town centre and around 11 euros to get in ,in combination with a museum ticket.

you can walk around easily but cannot get onto the centre where all the action occurred.

Huge parts are restored but it seems a lot of the original features are still in place .

Well worth a visit and probably around a hour or less be enough time to get around.

Fantastic to sit there and try to imagine what it was actually like.

The historic town of Side is remarkable. Town gates, temples and homes are all present in a small setting together with the huge amphitheater.

One of several surprising places that’s well worth a visit in this region.

We walked from our hotel which was a good few mile luckily we don’t mind a hike . This place was absolutely amazing . I highly recommend going to visit but recommend you take the correct Turkish change we had to go elsewhere and change euros . Totally breathtaking

If you're staying in Side, a visit to this amazing amphitheatre is a must. The entrance fee was very reasonable at only 55 Turkish lira. It's great just sitting on the steps of the theatre and taking in the atmosphere of the place. You also get wonderful views of the surrounding area from the top. Highly recommended.

Truly breathtaking sight to go into the amphitheater. Well preserved! It was a surreal experience taking a moment to reflect on what it would have looked like in its glory days, fully packed with people. Must visit if you are in Side or the vicinity!

It’s located behind the Agora. It’s the most spectacular building in Side. It was built in the 2nd century before Christ. It’s a part of the inner town-wall. It’s huge with 25 thousand seats. I think it’s a must-see attraction. We had an unforgettable experience to walk around and look at the view. We had to pay by cash and they only accept Turkish lira. It was fantastic, don’t miss it!

Side is an impressive place. It means pomegranate in ancient Luwian language. It was believed that Side was daughter of the mountain and bull god Taurus. Side people used a unique language, derived from Luwian routs, which was only spoken in Side. Located at the heart of ancient city, this is well-reconstructed theatre. There is an acceptable entrance fee. You should see it.
