Diocletian's Palace
A Roman emperor's retirement villa—still occupied 1,700 years later. The Peristyle square still hosts open-air opera.

Cathedral of Saint Domnius
The oldest cathedral in continuous use—built inside Diocletian's own mausoleum. Climb the bell tower for the best rooftop view of old Split.

SightseeingRiva Promenade
Split's open-air living room: palm trees, espresso, the palace wall as backdrop, and the whole Adriatic doing nothing in particular.

Golden Gate & Gregory of Nin Statue
The palace's grandest gate, guarded by Meštrović's towering Gregory of Nin. Touch the bishop's toe—apparently that's the deal here.
