Petit bémol : un peu la galère pour se garer.
The Nora archeological site is quite nice especially when discovered with a guided tour by the excellent guide Andrea speaking French and Italian .. but this experience is spoiled by the bad practices of the Pula town toward foreign tourists (in particular).
The parking lot next to the site is not free of charge however :
- the very large sign which is supposed to inform the visitors is in Italian only so you are not aware that you must buy a ticket
- the community agent selling the tickets is not visible and does not step toward your car upon your arrival (we noticed one man laughing with another one quite some distance away and thought they were both bus drivers !)
- when you return to your car after the visit 1 hour ½ or so later you notice a parking ticket placed on the windshield in the back of your car by a “traffic auxiliary” (worth 41€ !)
- This makes your visit quite expensive in the end, with 2 guided tour tickets for 15€ plus one parking ticket for 41€ … along with a very bad souvenir of your trip in Sardinia !
I suspect that the community agent selling the tickets and the traffic auxiliary writing the parking tickets to be one and the same person which leads me to believe that this is part of an organized racket by the mayor of the local community ! Make sure not to get trapped like many tourists when visiting the Nora site : my recommendation would be to just boycott the Pula area altogether : there are many other interesting sites to visit in Sardinia (Tharos, Tempio di Antas, etc..)
visite en anglais .
Difficile de se garer (pas de parking dédié)
A noter : Visite de la Tour à proximité (devenue phare) comprise dans le pix et avec le même guide.
