📍 Temple of Apollo
Standing at the very tip of the Side peninsula, the Temple of Apollo is the most iconic landmark in Side. Five slender white Corinthian columns, re-erected from this 2nd-century AD Roman sanctuary, frame the Mediterranean in one of the coast's most photographed views. Free to wander and open to the sky, it sits beside the smaller Temple of Athena among Side's ancient ruins. Come at sunset, when the marble glows gold against the waves for a truly unforgettable Mediterranean moment.
