What should you do in Split, Croatia? For starters, you must explore Diocletian’s Palace, visit the Ivan Mestrovic Gallery, walk up Marjan Hill and taste Croatian wines.
“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 beating heart of the Old Town.
Drool over these 33 delicious Croatian desserts! From mouth-watering creamy Croatian cakes to traditional peach cookies, these are the best sweets to try in Croatia.
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.
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.
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.
