The Croatian city of Pula is located at the southern tip of the Istria Peninsular and lies on and beneath seven hills on the inner part of a wide gulf. It has a naturally protected port which is open to the north west and has two entrances. One is from the sea and the other is through the Fazana Channel. Known for its mild climate, beautiful scenery and calm seas, the city has a long history in wine waking, fishing, shipbuilding and tourism. There are many surviving ancient Roman buildings in the town, with the most popular being the 1st century amphitheatre, one of the six largest surviving Roman amphitheatres in the world. Other popular attractions Roman structures in the city are the 1st century triumphal arch, the Arch of the Sergi and the co-eval temple of Rome and Augustus which was also built in the 1st century during the reign of the Roman Emperor, Augustus.

The Slovenian town of Piran is located on the Gulf of Piran and lies on the Adriatic Sea coast and is regarded as one of the most picturesque and oldest towns in Slovenia. The town was ruled by the Venetians for several centuries and this is reflected in the architecture of its buildings that can still be seen today. The town began to grow in the 7th century and is when it was first mentioned in historical sources. Throughout its history it has been ruled by different cultures although the Venetians perhaps held the most influence. In 1283, Piran accepted the authority of Venice which was maintained until 1797 when the Venetian Republic declined. Following this Piran fell under the control of Austria until 1918. In the period between both world wars this territory belonged to Italy and later to Yugoslavia and then Slovenia.
