Green Canyon Side

Green Canyon Side extensive explanation

A fascinating tour to the Green Canyon from Side will leave an unforgettable experience for all participants. This is a unique area, and not just an ordinary mountain gorge. Green Canyon is a truly amazing reservoir of enormous size, formed by artificial means. His story is very interesting. This is a completely flooded valley in the Taurus Mountains, where there used to be a bend of the famous Manavgat River, as well as several mountain lakes, in which the ancient Romans filled their flasks. However, in the late 80s, the Turks built a dam on this site, after which this attraction was formed. And the reservoir got its name for two reasons at once: due to the iron content, the water acquired an emerald hue, and the mountain slopes are covered with lush vegetation.
