PURE NATURE IN THE CITY OF PULA – PARK FOREST ŠIJANA

ISTRIADUCTION  All Year | Working time: All day | Free Entrance If you wish to escape from the swarming streets and sweltering heat of the city on a summer afternoon into colorful autumn or a scented spring morning you should go to Šijana Forest. Surely you won’t regret it. Only two kilometers from the very center of the city you will find heaven for your body and soul. The narrow winding labyrinth-like paths at every curve reveal surprises, a small animal or a beautiful specimen of forest flora. Through the tall tree tops the sunrays shyly protruding just to enable you to see where a certain path leads. It is equally nice here in spring when the soil is covered with fragrant carpets of cyclamen and in autumn when under the fallen leaves you can discern caps of many species of mushrooms. Admire them in their natural habitat, rather than picking them! All flora and fauna in this forest are protected, so all you can take home are memories of such lovely sights.
