Pula is a picturesque and lively coastal town in Croatia that attracts thousands of tourists every year due to the historical remains of the Romans and the beautiful surrounding attractions. Because it is close to us, it is extremely suitable for a one-day trip to the sea, which can be much more than just a trip. When we arrive in the morning, we use the time to see the city, in which it is certainly the most famous Pula Arena, a Roman amphitheater from the 1st century. Today it attracts with its beautiful architecture and in the summer also with a unique concert atmosphere. Among other things, they join the historical sights Temple of Augustus, Sergius Arch - Golden Gate and Naval Cemetery, which is a popular promenade of local residents. They are proud of many beautifully landscaped parks, each of which has its own story. Some have different geometric shapes, others are relaxed and planted with colorful vegetation.
