Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 482 reviews
East of Anatlaya you'll find the clear and beautiful river Köprü. Shortly after Beskonak is the starting point of the canyon and a white water rafting tour. Two Roman bridges mark the beginning. The canyon is 14k meters long.

This national park can be visited at any time of year. In the summer or Spring you can go canoeing and whitewater rafting. If you do not want to go on a tour then just drive to the park and you can easily find other independent people looking to split the cost and go rafting. The price will include all the equipment,bringing you back to the start and lunch. I can highly recommend doing this! If you are not so active there are amazing views, picnic spots and lovely walks a long the river. There are two Roman bridges which should not be missed. The scenery is particularly spectacular in autumn with all the different colors of the leaves.

Reviewed By FlippertyG - Carlisle, United Kingdom
Side old town is peppered with ancient ruins and monuments. As soon as you disembark from the dolmus at the bus station you will find history in front of you The ancient city, is very much still visible. You can take the main road to the left and walk along the colonnaded streets to the ampitheatre, or take a detour among the fields around the bus station and explore the ancient houses, hospitals, churches. You can spend all day here just wandering from ruin to ruin. The stones are a haven for lizards who bask in the sun, and the birdlife is amazing too. The paved streets of the ancient romans are still in tact, and many of the old pillars still stand along the sides of the streets. The ampitheatre is a must see, and as you head down the peninsula to the see you will find the beautiful temple of apollo- a great place to see the sun set. Interspersed with the ancient ruins are modern souvenir stalls and cafes, so you can spend all day here at your leisure and even take a dip in the sea, soak up the sun or visit the harbour. Beautiful place to visit

Turkish way to make bussines in bazaars or in smaller shops has changes very rough and unpolite. If you ask price and you dont buy, they start to be very unpolite. I have been in Turkey over 20 times, to shopping is not any more fun or nice conversations while shopping. So Nova mall was different. You can buy brand products at same price than copy versions fron Side small shops. It is easiers and you get exellent service in Nova mall. Even the food were exellet in Nova malls Shakespeare cafe and bistro restaurant. Specially service were very kind. Save you money and buy better products and go to Nova mall.

Be prepared to haggle and you will get some great bargains. We bought trainers, spices, pashmina scarves, fruit, drinks, souvenirs. You can buy t-shirts, sportswear, swimwear, jeans, jackets, bags, suitcases - just about everything. Plenty of restaurants and cafes for when you need a break. Well worth a visit. Some very convincing fakes!

Reviewed By carolinee924 - Milton Keynes, United Kingdom
Went as part of a Jeep tour - costs 12TL per adult (children free). More rapids than waterfall but amazing place. The strength & volume of the water is amazing. There’s a place you can ‘step into the water’. Water very cold - even in August- freezes your feet! Well worth s visit, lots of vendors selling souvenirs & Icecream.
