Split, Croatia

Depart Plitvice Lakes and drive south to the UNESCO protected seaside town of Split. Upon arrival, a walking tour along the cobbled streets of the Old Town features the historic inner city with its dominating Roman influence, built around the 4th century Palace of Diocletian. Visit this well-preserved palace, a precious example of Roman architecture. View the remains of the Cathedral of St. Domnius built in the Middle Ages, and the Temple of Jupiter with its headless black sphinx guarding the entrance. Spend the remainder of the day discovering the town independently. In the evening, savor dinner at the hotel
