More about Split

1700 years old walls of ancient roman Diocletian palace in which locals live today is the perfect mix of history and welcoming easy going locals. Paradoxically, big part of citizens of Split are more interested in chit chatting with coffee under the sun and outdoor activities then history, which is surrounding them on every corner.

Even dough Split has small town vibe and it’s easy to walk, there is a bunch of streets and passages in the center so it is easy to get yourself lost and be dragged into the magic of exploring unknown beauty with a fresh look on middleaged streets, which locals have lost due to familiarity with the city.Running into sharp dressed choir of men singing most lovely melodies, narrowest street in the whole city or into the 3500 years old lady cat – it can happen in the span of 2 minutes of wandering around. Game of Thrones filming set location or people in speedos playing weird sports that Split has invented, the choice is yours.

After a good meal, walking next to the sea in a relaxed manner, just like locals, is the perfect way to wrap up your evening since Split has a walkable coastline that expands for more than 11 km (or 7 miles). Summer temperatures reach up until 35 degrees celsius (95° Fahrenheit), which is very convenient for swimming and chilling on the beach and winters are around 8-10° celsius (46 – 50 degree fahrenheit) – still comfortable with not so often rain and snow every 5 years.
