History
Manavgat takes its name from the city of Manava in Pamphylia in Byzantine times. The ancient cities of Side and Selge date back to the 6th century BC. Manavgat was taken over by the Seljuk Turks in 1220 and the Ottoman Empire in 1472. The town also has a castle named "Zindan Kalesi" literally Dungeon Castle in English.
