Awesome city good for a day or two. We found a walking tour online/Facebook that was pretty nice
Good photo op: from the steps of this church you get a great view of the harbor with a view of the Amphitheater in the background.
Basically the very middle of the city center. Just wander through the streets til you get to the top. Wander around outside on the ramparts to get some good views.
Basically the middle of the old city center. If you're lucky, there will also be some events going on around this area.
Through here is the Zerostrasse, a series of tunnels underneath Pula. Supposedly in the summer evenings this is the place to be: lots of food, music, and vendors. We just missed it though!
Nice outdoor farmer's market. Great place to pick up some truffles or truffle oil and some honey liquor. Or just sample a lot.
Around this plaza were several good looking restaurants that were also recommended by locals like...
Alighieri was really great. Fair price and good food. Plus complementary liquor shots at the end.
Cool outdoor patio/lounge up the steps through the Hercules Gate. They have live jazz on Fridays (at least when we were there).
This bakery is actually a chain, but even still it was really good. Any bakery will do. Make sure to get the Burek pastries and try all the different kinds: meat, cheese, spinach, etc.
If you're looking for a quite morning or afternoon, the aquarium which is built into an old fortress was very cool. Good for a couple hours.
And after the aquarium, this place had a cool patio for watching the sunset. A bit more expensive than a local bar, but like I said, cool location.
Beautiful medieval town right on the water. We didn't actually do all that much here, but just wandering the streets and along the water for a couple hours is awesome.
Cool view from the tower of this church at the tip of the city.
Very cool little "cove" next to the water where you can hang out or even jump in. Nearby were also a couple bars where you could grab a drink and sit by the water.
Great view of the sunset from this pier with the town in the background.
Make sure to go to dinner at one of the local (usually) family-owned traditional restaurants called a "Konoba". I'm sure they're all great, but we ended up going to this one and we enjoyed everything.
Really cool medieval town built right into the mountain/hillside. FYI you can drive your car most of the way up. The town itself is pretty small and not much to do, but still cool for a couple hours.
Pretty cool waterfall off the beaten path. Only like a 5 minute hike from where you can park your car.
This fjord was pretty cool, although not really a must see. If you've got some extra time on your way to/from Rovinj then it's something to do.
Unfortunately we didn't have time/it was too windy. But this national park came highly recommended; great place for swimming, snorkeling, and kayaking.
