About Split

Split er en travl dalmatinsk havneby bygget i og omkring en romersk kejsers palads, med færger til nogle af Kroatiens smukkeste øer.

Diocletians Palads, bygget omkring år 300 som kejserens pensionistbolig, er selve den gamle by: dens mure, kældre og gårdhaver rummer boliger, butikker og caféer. Peristylen, det søjleprydede hjerte, fører til Sankt Domnius-katedralen, engang kejserens mausoleum, og dens klokketårn giver udsigt over tagene.

Top-ranked sights in Split: Budikovac Island (Veliki Budikovac), Blue Lagoon Croatia (Krknjasi Bay), Peristyle Square (Peristil).
