| half day private sightseeing tour of Pula to admire the well-preserved Roman ruins including the 6th largest amphitheatre in the world, the Arena |
| |
| Meet your local English-speaking guide, car and driver at your hotel in Pula or cruise ship tender and embark on a half day sightseeing tour of this multi-layered city. The most famous sight in Pula is the well-preserved Arena, the1st century Roman amphitheatre that seated 22,000 spectators at gladiatorial combats or Christians being thrown to the lions. See several other remarkable Roman ruins such as the Temple of Augustus at the Forum, which now houses Roman statues, and the Sergius Triumphal Arch which was built by a grieving mother for three soldier sons who died at the Battle of Actium. There are several medieval churches and parts of the old city walls to be seen, and some imposing 19th century villas built when this was part of Austria. Nowadays Pula is a busy, modern commercial centre independent of tourism, but the layers of its history are not far from the surface. James Joyce wrote some of A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man here, and its film festival has hosted Elizabeth Taylor, Richard Burton and Orson Wells. |
