Visita turística a Split con degustación de aceitunas incluida desde Split

Split is an important urban, cultural, and transportation center of Dalmatia, with ancient roots that stretch back through several civilizations. Its history is closely linked to the ancient Greeks and the Aspalathos colony, followed by the Illyrian Delmati tribe, and later the Roman era under Emperor Diocletian and his palace stands here. Diocletian shaped the foundations of today’s Split by building a palace near the Adriatic Sea, designed like a Roman military fortress, which later became the heart of the city. The old town center, built around this remarkable structure, has been included on the UNESCO World Heritage List since 1979 and attracts countless visitors from around the world each year.

Over the centuries, Split gradually transformed from a simple transit hub into a popular holiday destination. Today, it stands as a vibrant cultural center, proud of its strong theater scene, diverse alternative events, and engaging exhibitions. During the summer months, the city comes alive with festivals, performances, and a lively atmosphere that reflects its unique blend of ancient heritage and modern lifestyle. This dynamic character, combined with its rich history and coastal setting, makes Split one of the most fascinating cities in the Adriatic region.
