About Split

Split is een drukke Dalmatische havenstad rond het paleis van een Romeinse keizer, met veerboten naar enkele van Kroatiës mooiste eilanden.

Het Diocletianuspaleis, rond de eeuwwisseling van de vierde eeuw gebouwd als pensioenverblijf van de keizer, is de oude stad zelf: achter de muren, kelders en binnenplaatsen bevinden zich woningen, winkels en cafés. De Peristylium, het zuilenhart, leidt naar de Kathedraal van de heilige Domnius, ooit het mausoleum van de keizer, en vanaf de klokkentoren heb je uitzicht over de daken.

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