Diocletian's Palace
A Roman emperor's retirement palace from 305 AD that's still a living neighbourhood — restaurants, shops, and homes fill the same walls, cellars, and courtyards, making it one of the world's best-preserved Roman structures precisely because it was never abandoned.
Riva Promenade
The palm-lined waterfront just outside the palace walls, Split's main social space for a coffee or evening stroll with harbour and island views.
Marjan Hill
A forested peninsula-park above the old town, with viewpoints, hiking and biking trails, and small medieval chapels tucked into the hillside.
Cathedral of Saint Domnius
Originally Diocletian's own mausoleum, later converted into a cathedral — among the oldest cathedral buildings in the world still in use, with a bell tower worth the climb for palace-rooftop views.
Green Market
A produce and local goods market just outside the palace's Silver Gate — good for fruit, lavender, and a feel for everyday Split life away from the tourist core.
Trogir Day Trip
A UNESCO-listed medieval island town 30 minutes from Split, small enough to see in a few hours, with a well-preserved old core often visited alongside Split itself.
