City introduction
A Roman palace turned old town, with ferries to the islands. Split grew inside Diocletian's Palace — a 4th-century Roman emperor's retirement home that became the old town: peristyle cafés, temple-turned-baptistery, and basement markets. The Riva promenade fronts the ferries to Hvar, Brač and Vis.
