The focal point of this photograph is undoubtedly the magnificent Roman Amphitheatre, proudly standing amidst its urban surroundings. The amphitheater's grandeur is awe-inspiring, showcasing intricate details and sturdy structure that have withstood centuries of existence. Its presence serves as a testament to Pola's historical significance and cultural heritage. As we explore beyond the amphitheater, our eyes are drawn towards other notable sites and monuments scattered throughout the landscape. Excavations reveal layers upon layers of history waiting to be discovered by archeology enthusiasts. The port, naval, and river elements hint at Pola's importance as a transportation hub during that era. The architecture showcased in this print exemplifies both elegance and strength.
