Split
Cathedral in Split:
|
Located on a peninsula on the shore of the Adriatic Sea,
Split is the second largest city in Croatia.
As of
2007, the city
had a population of 221,456, with an estimated 408,000 living in the metropolitan area.
The settlement Split dates back to at least the 3rd century AD, as it is known the Roman
Emperor Diocletian order the construction of a massive palace at the site in 293. In the 7th
century the interior of palace was converted into a town by the former citizens of nearby
Salona who fled to the area to escape the destruction of their town by the Avars. Although
today Split has grown far beyond the original palace area, much of the palace still stands
and in fact forms the inner core of the city.
