Pula is best known for its many surviving ancient Roman buildings, the most famous of which is its 1st- century amphitheater. Locally known as Arena, it is the sixth largest amphitheater in the world. One of the best preserved amphitheaters from antiquity, Arena is still today used as a venue for the summer film festivals.

After a guided tour of Pula, we are going to the nearby village of Vodnjan for the olive oil tasting. A family farm Chiavalon is specialized in growing olives and producing top quality extra virgin olive oil. Their olive oil is among the 15 world's top olive oils.

PULA

Guided walking tour and free time.
Pula is the largest town in Istria. It is also a completely different place than any other you will find in Istria. With its long shipbuilding and navy tradition, it has always had more of industrial, urban vibe than touristy, dolce vita style other towns in Istria have.
It's a mishmash of styles with its of Roman, Venetian, Austro-Hungarian and socialist architecture. It's rough around the edges, and it takes time to love and appreciate Pula. However, once you do, you will realize that this town has so much to offer, so many places to discover, and so many things to do.
Pula is located at the southern tip of Istrian peninsula and it has some of the best beaches in all Istria. The town also boasts a wealth of historical sites, lovely examples of Roman architecture, while town's market, constructed in late 19th century, is a beautiful example of the Vienna Secession architecture.
The most famous town's site is Pula Colosseum, a Roman amphitheater dating back to the 1st century AD. It is well-preserved and today it also serves as a venue for summer festivals and concerts.

Vodnjan is a sleepy Istrian village that contains one of the region's most macabre sights. There's not much to see in the tiny town. Unmarked by tourism, it retains an authentic Istrian flavor with nice architectural details. Most people go for the unique Baroque 18th-century Church of St. Blaise.
