Pula & The Roman Amphitheatre | The Capital Of Istria [HD]

The Pula Arena is the name of the amphitheatre located in Pula, Croatia. The Arena is the only remaining Roman amphitheatre to have four side towers and with all three Roman architectural orders entirely preserved. It was constructed in 27 BC - 68 AD and is among the six largest surviving Roman arenas in the World. A rare example among the 200 Roman surviving amphitheatres, it is also the best preserved ancient monument in Croatia.

The arena that towers over Pula, Croatia is a marvel of ancient engineering.

The Pula Arena is amidst the world's two hundred Roman style amphitheatres left standing, and numbers among the grandest.

The arena's highest walls rise to a staggering almost one hundred feet.

Constructed mostly from limestone, the amphitheatre has nearly one hundred and fifty identical arches.

The arena was once home to gladiator's fights, medieval festivals, and is currently suited to stage concerts and theatre productions.

Estimated to be nearly 2,000 years old, the Pula Arena remains one of Croatia's most prolific sites.
