The Waterfall274 viewsThe Kursunlu Waterfall is on a tributary of the Aksu, the major river of Antalya Province. We were lucky to see it in springtime; it's reported that it dries to a trickle in the summer.Aug 16, 2019

The Amphitheater at Side268 viewsThe Side Amphitheater was ground zero for viewing the spectacle on eclipse day. I shudder to think of how packed the place must have been, and I think our location on the beach at the Kaya Side Hotel must have been much less crowded and more relaxed.Aug 12, 2019
