Alternative Plans for Colder Days (Picture Heavy)

Tuesday turned out to be better than we thought so, I went to the beach. Wednesday was the perfect day to go see the Temple of Apollo. Thursday was much nicer but still on the chillier side. We decided to go to the Antalya Archaelogical Museum. Afterwards we sat at a cafe and had coffee by the beach. Pictures of that will be on a later post.

Here are some pictures from Side, the Temple of Apollo and it's surroundings:


The Temple of Apollo

Above is the temple. 

Below are some amphoras used to keep and ship liquids such as olive oil, wine etc.



Below is the Amphitheatre. This is a small one when compared to Aspendos some miles away from Side.

Below are some coins and an earthenware piggy bank! How cool is that? May be I should make this my profile picture. 


Here are short videos of tour boats although I don't think I would've liked to be on a boat that day:





It was a nice day and both uncle and I enjoyed it very much.

  1. What a beautiful country, so much history. Glad you are enjoying some time to do things - those amphoras amaze me.

    1. Thank you Cheapchick. Only if all our citizens truly appreciated our country. The stupid ignorants are ruining it.

  2. You live in a beautiful country - and isn't it just something that when you're "bored" you can go visit the Temple of Apollo. It sure beats going to Walmart doesn't it!

    1. You're right. It is indeed very beautiful. Only if we could eliminate the politicians for good.
