Itinerary
Diocletian's Palace is the historic heart of Split and one of the best-preserved Roman palaces in the world. It was built in the 4th century for the Roman Emperor Diocletian, who chose this area to spend his retirement. Today, the palace is not a museum but a living part of the city. Within its ancient walls you’ll find homes, cafés, shops, and narrow stone streets filled with everyday life. Walking through the palace feels like stepping into different time periods at once—Roman foundations, medieval additions, and modern Split all blending together in one unique space.

About Split
Split is a busy Dalmatian port built within and around a Roman emperor's palace, with ferries to some of Croatia's loveliest islands.
Diocletian's Palace, built around the turn of the fourth century as the emperor's retirement home, is the old town itself: its walls, cellars and courtyards hold homes, shops and cafés. The Peristyle, the colonnaded heart, leads to the Cathedral of St Domnius, once the emperor's mausoleum, and its bell tower gives views over the rooftops.
Top-ranked sights in Split: Budikovac Island (Veliki Budikovac), Blue Lagoon Croatia (Krknjasi Bay), Peristyle Square (Peristil).
