MUST VISIT IN CROATIA #Europe The Pula Arena
The Pula Arena is an amphitheater built by the Romans so that they could enjoy gladiatorial fights. It was built somewhere between 27 BC and year 68. It was originally wooden but was modernized over time to its present-day shape built of limestone.
The Pula Arena is known for several reasons:
1. Historical significance: The Pula Arena is one of the best-preserved Roman amphitheaters in the world, dating back to the 1st century AD. It is a testament to the advanced architecture and engineering skills of the ancient Romans.
2. Architectural marvel: The arena's design and construction are impressive. It consists of three stories of travertine stone arches, with a seating capacity of around 20,000 spectators. The arena's elliptical shape and grandeur make it a remarkable architectural landmark.
2. For centuries, the theatre was used to accommodate gladiatorial fights until the 5th century when they were prohibited by emperor Honorius. However, combats between convicts and wild animals continued until the 7th century. During the Middle Ages, the arena was used for grazing, fairs, and tournaments
3. It was constructed between 27 BC and AD 68, and is among the world's six largest surviving Roman arenas. The arena is also the country's best-preserved ancient monument.
