I have been to Split several times and I always liked the city. After a week on the island of Brac with a lot of rain and only a couple of nice days, I was happy to see that the Dalmatian capital welcomed me with radiant sunshine and 20° C. I slendered along the Riva and through the beautiful pastiche of Roman ruins, medieval churches and renaissance palaces that is the center of Split. Then did a walk on the Marjan hill, where you enjoy the most beautiful views of the city and the sound between Split, Brac and Solta. Dubrovnik, the Pearl of the Adriatic Sea? A museum for cruise ship tourists. The true connaisseurs go to Split.
In the city center, which is actually completely placed within Diocletian's palace. The man took no half measures!
The bell tower of the Cathedral, rising behind Roman ruins.
Also a newly wed couple thinks it is time for pictures in front of the Riva.
The view from Marjan Hill over the sound that separates Split and the island of Brac, where we played.
A Croatian flag on top of the Marjan. Rut un wiess, wie lieb' ich dich...
The Trg Republike is Split's answer to Madrid's Plaza Mayor, with the seaside view as an extra.
