Great open space with a place for everyone - tourists and locals alike. Its a great open air venue for musical performances which occur from time to time and there are many bars and restaurants to visit. The Roman temple is a site to behold.
MoreLoved this area! Pula is very friendly and not too big or too touristy, at least when we were there in mid to late June.
MoreNice architecture, quiet place, good to stay for a moment to look around and chill
MorePula is a beautiful city full of very old buildings and monuments. Definitely worth visiting.
MoreSat down and watched the world go by for a while. Nice place to do this.
Great view. Great opportunity for photos. Good café and tourist information nearby
MoreNice square. Crowded during summer. But there is lovely Art caffee on the right side with loads of beer choices and vegan coffee. Just ask for it.
MoreGreat Cafes some with reasonable prices and a perfect place to spend time with a coffee or drink in a setting including Roman temples and Venetian heritage buidings
MoreGreat little area to hang out in an old historic part of Pula. The temple of Augustus is here and several places to relax and have some food and drink and people watch. One of several areas in Pula to enjoy and observe ancient history
MoreUnknown named italian style resto. To be absolutely avoided. Not only a cash only tourist trap, but also zero hygenia. Do not use their infectious looking toilet. The chicken tortellini was made of stinky meat. When we raised the issue, we received rejection and we were wrong. Left without touching. A disgrace in the city center.
MoreGet information and a coffee here with a great view of the Temple of Augustus. Temple of Diana no longer remains.
MoreSo beautiful place, you feel like you are in Rome, so romantic and a lot of bars to take a drink
MoreThis is the ancient square of this city in old town near the sea. There are Mayors office, tourist information point, a minor museum and lots of very good restaurant and coffee. This is very crowded during the day especially after 5, because people are eating there. I recommend to visit this square. If you dont like crowed you should go there in the morning.
MoreNice square with a lot of eateries and cafes.
The Temple of Augustus (Croatian: Augustov hram)[a] is a well-preserved[4] Roman temple in the city of Pula, Croatia (known in Roman times as Pola). Dedicated to the first Roman emperor, Augustus, it was probably built during the emperors lifetime at some point between 27 BC and his death in AD 14.[5] It was built on a podium with a tetrastyle prostyle porch of Corinthian columns and measures about 8 by 17.3 m (26 by 57 ft), and 14 m (46 fthigh.[6] The richly decorated frieze is similar to that of a somewhat larger and more recent temple, the Maison Carrée in Nîmes, France.[7] These two temples are considered the two best complete Roman monuments outside Italy.[8]
MoreWe love this part of Pula because it is special, because it is full of beautiful historic buildings and because the atmosphere is always, but always, extremely good. Piazza Foro has been the central town square since the founding of the Roman colony of Pole. The center of Roman cities consisted of forums dominated by temples and basilicas, and were the most important urban social space, a gathering place for citizens. The forum is located between the sea coast and the western slopes of the central city hill, on which Kaštel was later built. Its present appearance has been considerably altered, and only the Temple of Augustus bears witness to the squares ancient past. Originally, there were three temples on the Forum, the Temple of Augustus, the Temple of Diana, the Capitol and the Basilica, but today only one remains - the Temple of Augustus. It was built during the reign of Emperor Augustus between the ages of 4 and 14. The remains of the second temple are not visible today at all, while part of Dianas temple was used in the 13th century during the construction of the City Hall and can be seen from its rear. In addition to being religious, the Forum also served as an administrative center, with judicial and administrative offices. The tradition continued in the Middle Ages, when the City Hall was built, an excellent example of a mixture of architectural styles, primarily Romanesque and Renaissance, for the needs of the Venetian prince and providor. Today, the Forum is also a significant and lively space. Apart from being the seat of the administration, many guests gather here in catering facilities, but only during the summer, they are closed afterwards. Various concerts and other public performances are often held in the square.
MoreOld Roman Forum with well preserved temples is just a part of what can Pula offer you 😎👍
MoreGreat square where you can enjoy coffee and historical ancient buildings. Some weekends in the morning there is also a car show which has some pretty cool vehicles to check out. The prices in general for the surrounding shops and cafes are extremely reasonable and you should not hesitate to have a coffee and a good conversation.
MoreAncient rome vibe on a grasp. Clean vibrant architecture, small forum and lot of good coffee.
MoreBeautiful piece of history, got some really interesting pieces inside and its really cheap. Its a must go place to visit if you love history.
MoreThe city put on a light show that commenced on a Thursday night. It was interesting and the crowd wasnt to big that you couldnt make youre way through comfortably.
