Saturday 21st September and we were on an organised Tour of the Ancient port city of Side.
One of the major features of the ancient City and stopping point on our tour was the remains of this fountain.
It really was a remarkable and impressive sight even in it's current state. We learnt from our Guide the Fountain was once three times the size it is now.
We stood there just imagining how it originally looked, with large ornate archways, curved recesses and countless number of pillars.
The was a metal plaque near by with an etched drawing of the original fountain along with relevant information.

The fountains are on the main road into Side old town, you cannot get to close as they are all fenced off due to them being unstable. However tourists can get a good view of the baths from the street and its a great photo opportunity that costs nothing.

As with all historical sites, make sure you at least Google some quick historical facts and then visit with an open mind and a vivid imagination. Otherwise you'll just see a pile of rocks and a partially restored walls .

Side is essentially a pedestrian town and our taxi dropped us off at the bus terminal/car park so you walk down past this impressive piece of architecture.

A nice walk around an ancient monumen, in the city, no fees. There is a road running nearby, so the cars may not make it easy to take nice pictures with it

I was honestly surprised at how much there was to see in Side and all of it was very interesting to me. The Nymphaeum was great to look at and take pictures. As with all the other extremely closeby ruins I definitely recommend visiting Side and spending time outside of the centre walking around looking at this attraction as well as the others!
