The Old Town of Split is built on and around the spectacular 4th-century Roman Palace of the Emperor Diocletian who was born in Salona (today's Solin).
Your walking tour starts with a visit to the Palace's cellars, which are still very well preserved. They offer a fine glimpse of how the life in the Palace was organized.
Visit the very interesting Cathedral of St Duje (patron saint of the city), built on the remains of an ancient shrine and supposedly the oldest cathedral in the world.
Stop inside the charming Temple of Jupiter and view other landmarks such as the Golden Gate, the Silver Gate and Peristyle Square from the outside.
The colorful open market is the largest on the Dalmatian coast. Feel free to spend some free time on your own here or elsewhere in Split before strolling back to the ship.
Notes:
Use of an audio headset (included) will enhance your tour experience. Wear comfortable walking shoes.
