Split & Central Dalmatia
Split grew through and around an imperial Roman palace, creating a historic center where ancient walls, medieval streets, the Riva waterfront and everyday city life remain closely intertwined.

Bon Voyage treats a destination as a connected world: history, neighborhoods, food, nearby escapes and the port or route that brought you here all belong to the same journey.
Split's historic center is remarkable because life continued inside the Roman monument.
UNESCO describes Diocletian's Palace as a complex built between the late third and early fourth centuries. In later centuries, a cathedral, churches, fortifications and Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque buildings were woven into its Roman fabric—turning the former imperial residence into the continuously inhabited core of Split.
