Today, it serves as important physical evidence for exploring the history and urban evolution of Pula, and is one of the gateways for visitors to step into the scenes of ancient Roman metropolitan life. As one of the core historical landmarks of Pula's old town, this attraction is not only an architectural heritage site but also a key clue to understanding the expansion of the Roman Empire, the power of local nobility, and urban renewal.

One of the only six remaining arenas in the world, it is now used as a place for citizens to rest on weekdays, and a film festival is held every year!
The arena was considered medium-sized in ancient Rome, and it was damaged during the war years!
