Split is the second largest city in Croatia, situated in the heart of Dalmatia, a Croatian region characterized by warm and pleasant climate and the Mediterranean culture.

The town itself is 17 centuries old, with the Roman emperor Diocletian’s palace in the core of today’s town. Diocletian’s Palace and the entire historical core of Split have been on the World Heritage UNESCO list since 1979, not only for the extraordinary preservation of the Palace, but also because the Palace and its city continue to live a full life.

Today, Split is an important Croatian cultural, tourist and sport centre, international port and the second largest university centre in Croatia.
