Croatia
Split
Split is a Roman emperor's retirement palace — Diocletian's, still lived in, with the sea on one side and ferries to the islands on the other.
Split is Croatia's second city — built inside and around Diocletian's Roman palace, a UNESCO site you walk through. The Riva promenade, the palace cellars, and the old town are the experience; the ferries to the islands (Hvar, Brač, Vis) leave from the port. It's the base for sailing the Dalmatian coast.
