The Tour of Split and the Ancient Roman Palace of Diocletian

Split is in the Croatian province of Dalmatia. Split is an active port and is home to the ancient Roman Palace of Diocletian. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is one of the greatest Roman ruins in Central Europe. Built in 305 AD by the Emperor Diocletian, this fortress-like palace was protected by walls 590 feet by 705 feet. The entire old section of Split, with the palace as its centerpiece, is a virtual open-air museum with the city's contemporary life bustling through it.
