Split is the urban center of the eastern part of the Adriatic Sea, known for its beaches, beautiful promenade, warm Mediterranean climate, bars, and restaurants, but also for its 4th-century Roman palace in the city center.
The city grew around the palace of the Roman Emperor Diocletian which had been built almost two millennia ago.

This trip also covers the area of torrent flows of Velika and Mala Paklenica.
The name Paklenica probably derives from a black pine sap called “paklina” which the locals used in traditional medicine, for wound treatment, and coating of wooden boats.
Velika and Mala Paklenica's distinctive canyons are carved vertically into the southern slopes of Velebit. This relatively small area has an abundance of exceptional diversity. Therefore its geomorphologic phenomena and forms, diverse flora and fauna, attractive landscapes, and intact nature will leave you breathless.
However, the historical fact is that many people stayed in mountain residences. This reflects in the ruins of numerous sacred buildings, such as churches, chapels, altars, holy hills, and measures. Trekking Paklenica National Park is the only way to get to know it, and that's just what you will do.

A piece of history, Dubrovnik is one of the most ancient fortress cities in Europe. And while there's evidence of settlements as far back as the Byzantine era, this area only came into its own as an important power since the 13th century due in part to its strategic coastal position. After spending some time getting to know the city, duck into one of Dubrovnik's many wine bars to relax. It's a good plan, as there's no better manner in which to celebrate your first day in Croatia than by enjoying a glass of white or red wine as the sun goes down over Dubrovnik's Old Town.
