The amphitheater is impressive, very well preserved, such places always evoke awe and respect inside. But the entrance fee is inadequate – 17 euros for just walking up the stairs is too much. They say that the same price also included a visit to the museum, but it was under reconstruction. It is unclear why the entrance fee was not reduced.
And also, tourists, be careful! Here, payment can only be made in lira, euros are not accepted in cash. They paid for two tickets in lira and only then recalculated that the employees of the amphitheater had set a rate of 48 lira per euro, whereas everywhere there was a rate of 38. It's a shame, we overpaid on the course, and we haven't visited the museum yet.

The ancient theater in Side is not just an attraction, it is a living piece of history that allows you to plunge into the atmosphere of the past. I recommend visiting it to anyone who is interested in ancient culture and wants to feel the spirit of ancient times.

The amphitheater is beautiful - there are no questions. but the organization is suffering. I just want to warn possible visitors in the near future.
1) entrance for locals (Turks) according to the museum card is 60 liras.
2) entrance for those who have a residence permit (or rather, the one-time cost of a museum card for a year) is 500 liras.
3) admission is just for tourists - 17 euros.
These 17 euros imply entrance to the amphitheater and the museum. That is, 1 ticket for 2 seats (and it is impossible to choose one of them). And for 17 euros, it's like nothing else.
But we bought tickets, and... we only got to the amphitheater. The museum is undergoing another reconstruction - it is clear that they are working there, but there is no data on the timing. Maybe it will be a week, maybe a couple of months.
Of course, it's nice and spectacular in the amphitheater, but there's just an amphitheater - it's spectacular, wide, but you can't walk outside it.... And he alone is not worth 17 euros. If they had known that the museum was closed, they would not have bought tickets. In general, there are questions for the organization. It shouldn't be like this.
