Pula Arena in Pula Croatia - August 2011
Pula Arena in Pula Croatia - August 2011
(This is
another
picture from October 2010 to February 2012 when this site was not updated)
I was a tournament director at the World Youth Bridge Congress in Opatija, Croatia in August 2011. Doreen and I spent about a week touring Croatia before the Congress started. One of the attractions we visited was the impressive Pula Arena, a Roman Amphitheatre in Pula on the southern tip of the Istrian Peninsula. The Arena is reminiscent of the better known and larger Rome Coliseum and still retains its complete circuit of walls.
Doreen and I loved Croatia and visited there a number of times. We saw and enjoyed a lot of Croatia - Zagreb, Opatija and Rijeka, Split, Dubrovnik, Zadar, Plitivice National Park, Zadar and more by car, ship, yacht and plane. See an account of a previous trip to Croatia in July 2010.
