Sights and Attractions in Split
If you had to find that one place in Europe which will awake the historical feelings in you without hesitation, you are welcome to come to Split. Even today when we mention Split, we think of the tower, famous Diocletian Palace. The monumental Diocletian’s Palace is remarkable due to the fact that this Ancient Roman emperor’s home evolved over the years to become an entire town, known as Split. Walking around Split today, it is difficult to know where Diocletian’s Palace ends and the city begins. The two are intricately combined. Some of the more obvious and impressive original ruins include the fortification gates, particularly the Silver Gate, the Temple of Jupiter, the underground passageways and the Peristil. It caters well for the tourist trade with several walking tours of the historical sites.
The importance of Diocletian’s Palace far transcends the local significance because of its level of preservation and the buildings of succeeding historical periods built within its walls, which today form the very heart of Split’s history. Diocletian’s Palace is one of the most unique architectural constructions in Europe.
Apart from Diocletian’s Palace, you can enjoy various other attractions in Split. One of them is the Cathedral of Saint Domnius. This cathedral is a stunning example of medieval architecture.
