Split is a beautiful historical city on the Dalmatian coast. It was founded by the roman emperor Diocletian (a.d. 244 – 313) who built a magnificent palace where he retired after his abdication (a.d. 305). This palace is at the heart of the present-day city of Split and is one of the best preserved monuments of the late Roman imperial period, with its Peristil, Mauseleum, Temple of Jupiter, Roman walls and gates. The Mausoleum of the emperor was transformed into the cathedral of Saint Dujam, patron of the city, in the 7th century. The Roman palace and the neighbouring medieval, renaissance and baroque parts of the city are on the list of UNESCO sites of human cultural heritage since 1971. Even today as you pass along the south promenade of the Palace, Riva, you can feel Diocle's spirit. You can also feel the light breeze blowing from the sea as it seems to be playing through the openings of the Cryptoporticus, welcoming to this town, travellers for who as Diocles said, there will always be a bed, food, drink, music and the presence of God.
The modern city of Split, which through centuries grew-out from this palace, has today about 380 000 inhabitants and a modern University with about 20 000 students. The city has a number of galleries (the Gallery of the world famous sculptor Mestrovic, born near Split, in particular), a renowned Archeological museum and an Opera house. Split is connected by air to major European cities, by roads (a coastal road from Trieste and with a connection to the new Zagreb-Split highway) and by sea to Croatian and Italian harbours on the Adriatic. It is also the main harbour for boat connections to the entire Dalmatian archipelago and to cities of Hvar, Korcula and Dubrovnik.
A few kilometers from Split are the archeological remains of Salonae, capital of the Roman province of Dalmatia. Close to the Split airport, about 25 km from Split, is the beautiful and picturesque small medieval and renaissance city of Trogir, with cathedral of St. Lovre, one of the most beautiful cathedrals on the Dalmatian coast. Trogir is also on the UNESCO list since year 1997.
