With a population of just over 200,000, Split is Croatia's second largest city and the most important city on the Dalmatian coast. Originally founded by Greek settlers, it rose to prominence under the Roman emperor Diocletian (a local boy made good); he built his retirement home here in 305 AD - a gigantic palace compound, covering an area of 38,000 square metres and able to accommodate up to 10,000 people! It is still largely intact. WIthin its walls are numerous cafes, restaurants and shops, as well as signficant monuments (Diocletian's Palace is a UNESCO-listed World Heritage Site). This photograph shows the Peristyle at the very core of the palace. On the left is the 7th century Cathedral of St Domnius, the main body of which was built by Diocletian as his mausoleum.
Slovenia/Croatia Trip - Day 11; Split
Exploring Split, afternoon and evening - After leaving Krka and arriving in Split we found our host had saved a parking spot just outside the room. The room was close to the Old City where cars aren't allowed and most spots are gobbled up as they become available. The car prohibition begins at the far right of the picture. Beyond a road barrier it's pedestrians only.
