Pula’s emblematic Roman Amphitheatre is one of the most complete in the world. It’s not just that the three storey-high arched walls and four towers around the perimeter are still standing, Pula’s Arena displays the incredible inner-workings of a Roman amphitheatre in vivid detail. You can see the underground passages used by Gladiators, and the cisterns that channelled perfumed water to the 20,000 spectators.
With a dramatic home inside the Austro-Hungarian fortress Verudela, Pula’s Aquarium is the largest in Croatia. Blending neatly with the fort’s stone architecture are tanks with freshwater and marine species native to Croatia and the Adriatic, together with tropical displays, a turtle rescue centre and an entire room devoted to sea horses. The centrepiece of the attraction is the shark tank, found in the former atrium of the fortress.
The only way into this park from the mainland is to head to the town of Fazana a few kilometres north of Pula. From there you can catch the regular boat service out to the archipelago, which will take about 20 minutes. The park is absolutely stunning, with densely wooded islands ringed by narrow white beaches. Seek out the natural history sites on Veliki Brijun, where 200 dinosaur footprints from the Cretaceous Period have been found. You can also see the remnants of a Roman villa and a Knights Templar church.
The Temple of Augustus became the city’s museum in the 1800s, but before long the city had more ancient heritage than it could display, and eventually this attraction was opened in 1925. Today the Archaeological Museum showcases finds from across the Istrian peninsula, including busts, mosaics and ancient stone reliefs. Exhibits here are being constantly updated due to the historical wealth of the region: They begin with artefacts recovered from Stone Age caves and finish up in with byzantine marble carvings found at the site of Pula’s first cathedral.
