3 things to see
Pula’s Roman amphitheater rivals the Colosseum in preservation, and entry costs a fraction of what you would spend in Rome. Even without going inside, the old town and its scattered Roman ruins are free to wander on foot. The surrounding Istrian peninsula offers affordable camping and excellent local food, and travel in spring or autumn dodges the summer-coast price spike. Rovinj and Rijeka are easy, cheap onward stops along the same coast.
