Manavgat waterfall

Manavgat and Duden Waterfalls come to mind as two locations in Turkey when searching for them. Manavgat Waterfall is one of the must-visit places for those who are thinking of vacationing in this region. You must see this beauty in order to discover a wonderful natural beauty that suits thousands of shades of green and to reveal the sounds of water and birds. There are many cafes and restaurants in the area where the waterfall can be visited to spend time alone with nature, relax, or just explore. The waterfall, which is formed as a result of the Manavgat River sloping down and is fed by underground waters, has a wonderful natural texture. Entrance to the waterfall can be paid with a symbolic fee. In the region, which opens in April, visits continue until the end of October. It is also possible to see many species of living things up close at the waterfall.

Although the image that comes to mind when it is called waterfall is the huge water waves pouring from quite high, the cliff where the Manavgat Waterfall falls is only 4 meters. However, the high flow of the river causes the view of the waterfall to be very impressive.

Trembling Lake

Although the real story of Trembling Lake, which fascinates people with its magnificent nature and is the subject of different legends, has true stories that are not as attractive as they are known, it will be a very pleasant experience to visit this place. The great secret of this natural wonder is that the upper surface starts to tremble at the slightest breeze due to the fact that the lake water is very still. However, one of the legends is that the water of the lake remained this way as a result of the ducks flapping their wings to help a fisherman who wanted to save the ducks who were shot by the hunters in the lake. This natural wonder, whose legend is more enjoyable than the truth, is a great option to get fresh air and see the natural wonders of the region.

Altinbeshik Cave

The lake inside the cave, thought to be Turkey's largest lake but the 3rd largest underground lake in Europe, is one of the natural structures worth seeing.  Swimming is prohibited in the lake, which is 125 meters long and 15 meters deep in places. The cave, which is closed due to rainfall in winter and spring, is open to visitors in summer and autumn.

Region of Side

Side, which is always preferred for summer holidays and has always been worth discovering because it is a town from ancient times, is among the regions that should be visited and spent time in. Side, whose history can be traced until the 7th century BC but is thought to have a much older history than this, was dominated by many empires such as Lydia, Persia, Rome, and Seljuk.  Since the word Side means "Pomegranate", it is a settlement that is thought to date back to the Hittites with the research made on this region together.

According to a legend, the goddess of nature and fertility, Side, and her daughter go to the shores of Manavgat (Melas) to collect flowers. Side, who plucked a flower with very eye-catching colors for her daughter, cannot move at once, and her feet turn into tree roots. It is rumored that the flowers picked by Side belong to a goddess who is the protector of people. Understanding her mistake, Side said, “I will give fruits the color of blood and become the symbol of life “. According to legend, Side has turned into a pomegranate tree, and the symbol of the region has been a pomegranate for centuries.

 Canyon of Bridge

The Canyon of Bridge, which is in the valley of Koprucay, starts from Isparta Sutculer and pours into the sea in Antalya, is one of the places that should be visited by those who are interested in adrenaline sports. The canyon, where more than 5,000 people raft every day during the season, manages to attract attention with its natural beauties.  Canyon of Bridge National Park is also located around the flowing stream and manages to attract the attention of those who go to Manavgat for vacation.

Turkey's longest canyon, which still holds that title, has a total length of 14 kilometers and also contains formations resembling fairy chimneys.  Canyon of the Bridge National Park hosts animals such as mountain goats, foxes, badgers, wolves, rabbits, and bears. In addition to the original vegetation providing a home to many creatures, it is also possible to encounter many historical buildings in the national park.
