Croatian Rome - Pula
Pula is the largest city on the Istrian peninsula and one of the most popular (especially among Polish tourists) Croatian resorts. In the distant past, it had a significant military and trade importance in the Mediterranean basin - not only was it one of the strategically important Roman cities, it was also one of the most beautiful. Its position was overthrown only by Venice with its dynamically developing port. Pula has a well-deserved reputation as an exceptionally beautiful city, not only in the northern part of Croatia, but throughout the country. It is called Croatian Rome because of its location on seven hills, and also because of its greatest attraction - the historic amphitheater. It is the third largest facility of this type in the world (after the Colosseum and Arena in Nîmes, France). Interestingly, the marble building has survived to this day in much better condition than the Roman monument. There is a large parking lot right next to it - if you are planning a trip to Croatia by car, it is best to park it in Pula.
