Detail of the stay : A big weekend in Split - 3 days
Day 1: Diocletian Palace and shopping
Steps: Split
Head for the centre of Split from the Silver Gate and you will arrive at the Peristyle, the open, rectangular square that forms the heart of the palace. Surrounded by columns on the east, south and west sides, the Peristyle gave access to Diocletian's apartments, the mausoleum and temples. Enjoy a moment out of time. On your left stands the mausoleum of Diocletian, now the current cathedral. Take the time to visit it, then climb up to the last steps of the bell tower to admire the panoramic view
Go down the steps leading to the underground rooms. When you leave, you will be facing the sea, on the riva. Continue by visiting the temple of Jupiter
Then, take a stroll along the Marmont shopping street (Marmontova). Finish the day by visiting one of the art galleries in the centre or the city's historical museum
Day 2: Market and gazebo
Steps: Split
Start with a tour of the old town market (Stari Pazar), located to the east of the palace. Stroll along the river to reach the Veli Varoš district, located at the foot of Mount Marjan. Stroll through the alleys to contemplate the popular architecture of this former fishing district
Enter the mountain Marjan and have your coffee at Terasa Vidilica, located next to the old Jewish cemetery. Take the time to enjoy the calm of the belvedere by admiring both the old town and the port from which ferries leave and return, linking it to the neighbouring islands. The temperature of the "green lung" is taken by a walk inside the pine forest. Go back down to the Ivan Meštrovic Gallery and finish with a swim at sunset.
