Diocletian's Palace, Split (Italian: Spalato, Latin: Spalatum), Croatia
The palace was built for Diocletian in the early 4th century. The emperor spent the rest of his life here after his abdication. The complex combines the qualities of a luxury residence with a military camp.
The palace was integrated into the urban texture of the medieval Split. It was "discovered" in the 18th century. Robert Adam, the neoclassical architect studied the palace intensively.
The site is included in the World Cultural Heritage list of UNESCO.

Split Strike - Best Viewed Large on black
Another Lightning Strike from last year. Stumbled upon this tonight while looking through some pictures, thought I might post it as I haven't had a chance to get out much recently.
The natural position and size of the port of Split enabled its rapid development and it became a port of special – international economic interest for the Republic of Croatia.
Also, thanks to its strategic position in the Mediterranean (between Venice and the Aegean port), the port of Split is one of the most important ports of call for cruises in the Adriatic, and its long history and numerous sights attract thousands of tourists.

Return to the Western world! We spend one month in Croatia, and sample the joys of Central Europe by the Adriatic Sea.
Zagreb is thoroughly modern and beautiful, with a livelier local crowd, fresh markets, and more hidden gems than Prague or Budapest.
The Plitvice Lakes are one of the most awesome national parks we have visited so far.
Dubrovnik is like stepping back into the 1400s, all rocky hillside, stone streets, towering city walls, and Mediterranean blue sea.
Split is Croatia's second city, perched on the sea and built around the Roman ruins of Diocletian's Palace. We would love to come back here.

【Lego Batmobile Tumbler】
1.Speedchampion size
2.openable door
3.It could fit two minifigs inside
As for my favorite version of batmobile, I took out 1000% passion to design it. The Speedchampion size is the most important thing on my list. So I designed as small as possible.
My design concept that the Tumbler is very flat and wide, like a crouching bat.
Secondly, the pursuit of clear edges and corners requires streamlined body, because the original designer of Tumbler was instructed to combine Lamborghini with military jeep.
Like all the equipment of Batman, Tumbler is militarized and modularized. Each piece of armor has a sharp edge and corner, which is highly practical. It can also be split into Batpod in the film.
Referring to the movie, I used the 58090 tire to restore the front wheels. The front wheels of the official set 56891 is kinda big and ugly, not smooth enough. In combination with the proportion, the 58090 is more appropriate and has a better aesthetic degree. I used the 56891 as the rear wheel. Finally, when I saw the finished product, I felt that my choice was correct.
