Split – Salona Archeological Site
Split is a city that grew out of a Roman emperor’s palace. The palace is still standing – people have been living in it for over 17 centuries.

Split is one of the living and breathing monuments both to the way people lived in the past and to different styles and influences that have been carved into its narrow streets, Roman temples, and Christian churches.

Outside the palace, the story of Split continues as it spreads from its center, the palace, to beautiful vistas on the hill of Marjan, to the old town, waterfront (Riva), and its beaches.

Salona is where it all started for this region, first an old Illyrian city, then the capital of the Roman province Dalmatia.

Birthplace of Roman emperor Diocletian, who, after his career, decided to build a palace nearby as a summer home. Salona now lies in ruins, destroyed in the centuries that followed its glory years.

But the history and the vast area of once 6th city in the Roman Empire still make memories come to life to every traveler that comes to visit it.
