Pula Free Tour

Our journey begins at a designated meeting point in the heart of the city. Following a brief introduction, we will immerse ourselves in Pula's fascinating history situated in the Peninsula of Istria.

We will make our way to the Trg Forum, the city's main square, where we will take in the impressive facade of the Town Hall and the Temple of Augustus. Here we will explore the reasons behind the temple's significance to the ancient Romans.

Continuing onward, we will pass through the historic Serbian Arch, an impressive structure that dates back 2,000 years. Adorned with reliefs inspired by Hellenistic art, we will pause to discuss the specific purposes of its architectural features.

As we navigate through Pula, we'll encounter other historical remnants, including the Twin and Hercules Gates. Just nearby, we will admire the magnificent highlight of Istria: the Arena of Pula. This stunning Roman amphitheater offers a striking resemblance to the Colosseum in Rome.

Another point of interest will be Tito Park, where we will delve into the Yugoslavian legacy of Croatia. This green space, rich in historical context, provides insights into how the influences of socialism have shaped Pula's cultural identity.

After a comprehensive tour lasting about 2 hours, we will conclude our experience at the city center of Pula.
