“Where is Diocletian’s Palace?” visitors often ask when in Split, Croatia. Shopkeepers laughingly reply, “You’re in it!” The ruins of the 1,700-year-old palace are the heart of the inner city.

Get High! Walk the Dubrovnik city walls
The best thing to do in Dubrovnik? Walk on top of the medieval city walls. Gaze down on one side at churches, palaces and carved fountains, all crammed together with apartments and cafes. On the other side, gawk at the turquoise sea.
Visit Trogir, the tiny Croatian town nicknamed Little Venice
Tiny Trogir has no canals. Never mind. It’s still nicknamed “Little Venice.” If you visit Croatia, try to see the medieval fairy tale town of Trogir.
Swimming in Dubrovnik
So you’ve walked the wall. And now it’s hot. Not to worry, there’s some great swimming in Dubrovnik. One of the best public beaches is a ten-minute walk up the road from the Old City.
