In the heart of Medulin, and outside the main tourist area, lies the beautiful peninsula of Vizhula - a peaceful place with a thousand-year history. Vizhula is an extremely important archeological site. Archaeological remains in this area of 26 hectares range from the Neolithic to late antiquity and the early Middle Ages. The most significant finds in Vižula are the remains of an ancient villa which with its impressive dimensions, monumental architecture, rich decoration, beautiful mosaics and finest marble is one of the most attractive, spacious and luxurious maritime residential villas from the Roman Empire on the eastern Adriatic coast.
The park is conceived as a multimedia archeological park in a way that meets the expectations of both children and adults, and includes two bars, children's playgrounds, an adrenaline park, a stage for various events in the former quarry, an archeological school and an antique garden. Visitors can get all the necessary information at the info-point at the entrance, and they can also rent VR glasses to enjoy a great visualization of the magnificent restored ancient villa and its individual parts. The park also features smart benches, an e-tree, a focal point, interpretation boards containing Braille texts for blind and partially sighted visitors, and a circular tactile map.
