Split is the second-largest city in Croatia and the largest on the Croatian coast. It is famous for Diocletian's Palace, built in the 4th century for the Roman emperor. The palace is a UNESCO monument and a unique example of Roman architecture in Europe. The old town grew up within the palace walls and is a living open-air museum.
The Peristyle, the palace's main square, hosts many cultural events. The Riva, Split's seafront promenade, is the favourite place for a stroll and a coffee. Split is the gateway to the islands of Brač, Hvar and Vis.
