The Pula Arena, 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.
