What awaits you
Diocletian's Mysterious Palace Diocletian's Palace is a real “city within a city”. You will see its beautifully preserved ground floor, the Peristyle Palace Square, the Golden Gate and the Temple of Jupiter. And the most ancient functioning cathedral in the world is the former mausoleum of the emperor, which was turned into a Christian temple in the 7th century. I will tell you what great masters took part in the construction and decoration of the palace and what influence it had on European architecture
History and legends of Split After finishing your walk through Diocletian's Palace, you will dive into the web of streets and squares of the Old Town, enjoying the medieval architecture and atmosphere. I will reveal the secrets of the Roman province of Dalmatia, which existed on the Adriatic Sea, and explain how the Croats appeared in Split. And also I will answer all your questions and share the advice of a local resident.
