Diocletian's Palace

Description:
Diocletian's Palace in Split, Croatia was built in 293 AD. Gradually, the city of Split began to be built around it. At one time there was a mausoleum of the Roman emperor, which was then turned into a Christian cathedral.
In later periods, the basements of the structure were adapted by merchants for storage facilities. During World War II, the palace became a refuge for thousands of locals.
Now the ruins of the palace are the center of the main tourist route of Split. Around it are numerous cafes, hotels, entertainment facilities. The monument was also chosen by filmmakers, filming several episodes there for the cult “Game of Thrones”.
You can get to the monument both by car and by public transport.
