When Roman Emperor Diocletian decided, in the year 305, to build a summer residence where he intended to spend the rest of his life, he had no doubt about locating it at the very heart of Dalmatia, in Aspalathos Bay (Split), which was well protected from the sea by the islands of the Split archipelago and defended by high mountains on its landward side. Diocletian created a special point on the map of the Adriatic: the future city of Split. A walk through this ancient city is like travelling through time, but Split is much more than just an exhibition of architecture. This is a city where you can enjoy top-notch gastronomy, film, theatre, music festivals and exhibitions. And if you want to avoid the urban bustle, there’s always the green oasis of Marjan forest park and kilometres of beaches washed over by crystal clear water. And then there are the islands. Brač is the Croatian island with the highest elevation and the third largest island in the Adriatic, with its Zlatni Rat [Golden Horn] beach representing one of the most famous symbols of Croatian tourism. It is home to the unusual Blaca Hermitage, a stone cave sanctuary that was constructed by monks in 16th century. South of Brač is Hvar, the longest island on the Adriatic and one that’s home to vineyards, olive groves, lavender fields, a mild climate, abundant vegetation and stunning resorts. Just off the coast of Hvar are the Pakleni Otoci [Hellish Islands], an interesting group of small islands with pebble beaches and nudist sand beaches, and rocky coastal areas that are perfect for fishing. Far from the land and its problems is Vis, which enchants visitors with its calm atmosphere of bygone times, pristine nature and excellent food. The nearby island of Biševo boasts the Blue Cave, which is the most beautiful of this small island’s many caves. Magical island’s guard Diocletian’s city Šetnja ovimdrevnim gradom je kao putovanje kroz vreme, ali Split jemnogo više od arhitektonskog ambijenta A walk through this ancient city is like travelling through time, but Split is much more than just an exhibition of architecture Srednja Dalmacija je region koji se odlikuje maslinama, aromatičnim biljem, blistavošcu belog kamena sred zelene vegetacije pod visokim planinskim masivom Biokova, čiji ogranci sežu sve do mora. Kada je 305. godine rimski car Dioklecijan odlučio da izgradi svoje prebivalište za odmor u kojem je nameravao da provede ostatak života, znao je da će to učiniti u samom srcu Dalmacije, u zalivu Aspalathos (Split), dobro zašticenom od mora splitskim Dioklecijanov grad čuvaju čarobna ostrva arhipelagom, a sa kopna branjenom visokim planinama. Dioklecijan je stvorio posebnu tačku na karti Jadrana – buduci grad Split. Šetnja ovim drevnim gradom je kao putovanje kroz vreme, ali Split je mnogo više od arhitektonskog ambijenta. To je grad u kojem možete uživati u vrhunskoj gastronomiji, filmu, pozorištu, muzičkim festivalima i izložbama. A ako želite da izbegnete urbanu vrevu, tu je zelena oaza park-šume Marjana i kilometri plaža koje izlaze na kristalno čisto more. A tek ostrva… Brač je najviše hrvatsko ostrvo i trece po veličini u Jadranskom moru, a plaža Zlatni rat jedan je od najpoznatijih simbola hrvatskog turizma. U njemu se nalazi neobično kameno svetilište Blaca, koje su izgradili monasi u 16. veku. Južno od Brača je Hvar, najduže ostrvo na Jadranu, ostrvo vinograda, maslinjaka i lavande, blage klime, bogate vegetacije i divnih letovališta. Pakleni otoci su grupa ostrva sa šljunkovitim i peščanim nudističkim plažama, ali i kamenitim podmorjem savršenim za ribolov. Daleko od kopna i njegovih problema je Vis, koji pleni mirnom atmosferom davnih vremena, netaknutom prirodom i odličnom hranom. U blizini je ostrvo Biševo i Plava špilja, najlepša od mnogih na ovom malom ostrvu.
