Central Dalmatia is a region characterised by oli - ve groves, indigenous aromatic plants, the brillian- ce of white stone against verdant vegetation and the towering Biokovo mountain massif, with ro- ots that descend all the way to the sea. When Ro- man Emperor Diocletian decided, in the year 305, to build a summer residence where he intended to spend the rest of his life, he had no doubt abo- ut locating it at the very heart of Dalmatia, in Aspa- lathos Bay (Split), which was well protected from the sea by the islands of the Split archipelago and defended by high mountains on its landward side. Diocletian created a special point on the map of the Adriatic: the future city of Split. A walk through this ancient city is like travelling through time, but Split is much more than just an exhibition of architecture. This is a city where you can enjoy top-notch gastronomy, film, theatre, mu - sic festivals and exhibitions. And if you want to avoid the urban bustle, there’s always the green oasis of Marjan forest park and kilometres of bea- ches washed over by crystal clear water. And then there are the islands. Brač is the Croa - tian island with the highest elevation and the third largest island in the Adriatic, with its Zlatni Rat [Golden Horn] beach representing one of the most famous symbols of Croatian tourism. It is home to the unusual Blaca Hermitage, a stone cave san- ctuary that was constructed by monks in 16 th cen- Magical island’s guard Diocletian’s city

arhipelagom, a sa kopna branjenom visokim planinama. Dioklecijan je stvorio posebnu tač - ku na karti Jadrana – buduci grad Split. Šetnja ovim drevnim gradom je kao putovanje kroz vreme, ali Split je mnogo više od arhitek- tonskog ambijenta. To je grad u kojem možete uživati u vrhunskoj gastronomiji, filmu, pozo - rištu, muzičkim festivalima i izložbama. A ako želite da izbegnete urbanu vrevu, tu je zelena oaza park-šume Marjana i kilometri plaža koje izlaze na kristalno čisto more. A tek ostrva… Brač je najviše hrvatsko ostrvo i trece po veličini u Jadranskom moru, a pla - ža Zlatni rat jedan je od najpoznatijih simbola hrvatskog turizma. U njemu se nalazi neobič - no kameno svetilište Blaca, koje su izgradi- li monasi u 16. veku. Južno od Brača je Hvar, najduže ostrvo na Jadranu, ostrvo vinograda, maslinjaka i lavande, blage klime, bogate ve- getacije i divnih letovališta. Pakleni otoci su grupa ostrva sa šljunkovitim i peščanim nu - dističkim plažama, ali i kamenitim podmorjem savršenim za ribolov. Daleko od kopna i njego - vih problema je Vis, koji pleni mirnom atmos- ferom davnih vremena, netaknutom prirodom i odličnom hranom. U blizini je ostrvo Biševo i Plava špilja, najlepša od mnogih na ovom ma - lom ostrvu.

Srednja Dalmacija je region koji se odlikuje maslinama, aromatičnim biljem, blistavošcu belog kamena sred zelene vegetacije pod viso- kim planinskim masivom Biokova, čiji ogranci sežu sve do mora. Kada je 305. godine rimski car Dioklecijan odlučio da izgradi svoje pre - bivalište za odmor u kojem je nameravao da provede ostatak života, znao je da će to učiniti u samom srcu Dalmacije, u zalivu Aspalathos (Split), dobro zašticenom od mora splitskim Dioklecijanov grad čuvaju čarobna ostrva
tury. South of Brač is Hvar, the longest island on the Adriatic and one that’s ho- me to vineyards, olive gro- ves, lavender fields, a mild climate, abundant vegeta- tion and stunning resorts. Just off the coast of Hvar are the Pakleni Otoci [Helli- sh Islands], an interesting group of small islands wi- th pebble beaches and nu- dist sand beaches, and rocky coastal areas that are perfe- ct for fishing. Far from the land and its problems is Vis, which enchants visitors with its calm atmosphere of by- gone times, pristine nature and excellent food. The ne- arby island of Biševo boasts the Blue Cave, which is the most beautiful of this small island’s many caves.
