Travel guide to Side
Side began as an ancient Greek city on a small peninsula, and after it was abandoned the ruins became known as Eski Adalia, meaning Old Antalya. Tourist tip: walk to the Temple of Apollo at sunset, visit the theatre and the museum, and browse the craft and souvenir shops of the old town. Side is also a handy base for Aspendos and Perge, and its sandy beaches suit swimming and boat trips.

About skin rash and allergy
A skin rash is a change in the colour, texture or feel of the skin, such as redness, itching, bumps or hives. An allergic reaction occurs when the immune system overreacts to a trigger such as food, medicine, plants or a sting.
Common triggers
Triggers include touching plants or jellyfish, new sun lotions or cosmetics, new foods and medicines, hot sweaty weather, infections and bites.
Symptoms of skin rash and allergy
- Dry, scaly or blistering skin
- Itchy red or raised patches (hives)
- Swelling of eyelids or lips
- Runny nose and watery eyes with hay fever
- Burning or stinging skin
Avoiding skin rash and allergy on holiday
Avoid known triggers, patch-test new products, use fragrance-free skincare and wear loose cotton in hot weather.
Care and treatment for skin rash and allergy
With photos and a video visit the physician can assess the rash, suggest antihistamines or creams, point out triggers to avoid and flag anything that requires a hands-on examination. Depending on your case, the physician may suggest antihistamines, soothing or mild steroid creams and avoiding the trigger.
- Rinse skin with clean water after contact with irritants
