Discover SPLIT
Twice a thousand years old, the country's second largest metropolis is today the largest national shipping port. Split combines the assets of the capital of Dalmatia with those of an active capital in Southern Europe. It is also a seaside resort, one of the most attractive in Croatia, especially during the summer season. Far from being a museum city, Split does not live by tourism alone. Around and inside the famous ancient palace of Diocletian, Split has preserved a unique and lively historical center. The neuralgic heart of the city, the imperial residence of the Byzantine era was the first Croatian heritage site to be classified by Unesco (1979). The whole historical district, very commercial, communicates with the waterfront(riva), the marina, the train stations. The port gathers its immense ferries in permanent rotation for Italy, the Adriatic coast, the islands and archipelagos of central Dalmatia.
