Croatia | Not just flowers and youth, but also relics and beaches

A single sentence to summarize Pula, Croatia, founded in the 2nd century BC, it still retains a large number of tangible historical relics to this day, including one of the few remaining ancient Roman amphitheaters, as well as temples and arches. The undulating city is reminiscent of Chongqing, full of fun, with the blue Danube River coast closely connected to forests, lakes, and mountains, making it very suitable for a slow-paced holiday. 📍Why choose Pula? Compared to Rome in Italy, the historical relics here are much closer to the audience, and there are significantly fewer tourists. If you visit during the off-season in autumn and winter, most of the city's attractions and relics may have less than ten people. Compared to the crowdedness of Rome, Pula offers the illusion of having the place to yourself. 📸Pula's ancient Roman arena, city gates, temples, and castles all reflect its important status during the Roman period. The fortress and towers on the hilltop bear witness to its special identity as a military stronghold, and the museum inside the fortress displays the once glorious history. It also constantly reminds posterity that only by being strong can one resist foreign invasions and maintain peace. 🦪It's not just about cultural history and natural landscapes, Pula's cuisine is also worth tasting. Located at the tip of the Istrian Peninsula, it blends Mediterranean flavors with various European tastes. Seafood, pizza, traditional Croatian dishes, as well as local specialties and ice cream are not to be missed.

In the summer I was able to explore new places by driving all over Eastern Europe by car. This is what I found in Croatia. A wonderful colosseum like the one in Rome. Exactly located in Pula in Dalmatia. A beautiful place by the sea. Perfect for summer vacations!
