We recommend starting with the Golden Gate (Porta Aurea), the most imposing of the four, before visiting the Iron Gate, the Silver Gate, and the Bronze Gate, each leading to a different neighborhood.   <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Between these four entrances, a maze of cobblestone alleys will lead you from one small square to the next. We loved how each gate tells a different story about the city\u2019s history, from its military past to its maritime heritage.<br\/>And try to find the super-narrow alley called \u201cLet Me Pass\u201d! <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Croatia\/Split\/Town\/Monuments\/i-fGBz2FM\/0\/LwP4gT6kg5gthJNCFbngsqzzVbCLMpDPnwCcqFLRt\/L\/Let_me_pass_IMG_3422-L.jpg\" alt=\"Let Me Pass Alley\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Practical advice<\/h3>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Duration of the tour: Allow 1.5 to 2 hours to explore the four gates and the surrounding alleys.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Challenges and Accessibility for People with Disabilities: uneven cobblestone pavement in some areas; narrow alleys that may make it difficult for wheelchairs or strollers to pass through<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Directions: Right in the heart of the historic center, within walking distance of the Riva<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A guided walking tour offers a deeper understanding of the history of these gates and the old town: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/split-l268\/visites-a-pied-tc3\/?partner_id=R3GYW4V&amp;cmp=croatia\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">See options<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2.

We found the irony of history quite fascinating: a persecutor of Christians now rests beneath a Catholic place of worship.

We were particularly impressed by the peristyle, a central colonnaded courtyard where an Egyptian sphinx over 3,500 years old stands. It is complemented by the cathedral tower, and the ensemble is spectacular.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You&#8217;ll also explore the vestibule and its dome, as well as the basements\u2014vaulted rooms that served as a filming location for the series *Game of Thrones*.  <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Croatia\/Split\/Diocletian-Palace\/Diocletian-Palace-Underground\/i-KqFzXTt\/0\/MVMZrdQtZZDkpn47hQCKVZPnSwfVKwFr6Z45XWKTg\/L\/Diocletian_underground_IMG_7950-L.jpg\" alt=\"Diocletian's Palace: Basement\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Basements<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Practical advice<\/h3>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Duration of the tour: 2 to 3 hours for a complete tour of the palace and its buildings<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hours: The palace itself is a public space open 24 hours a day, year-round; the basement levels of the City Museum are open daily, generally from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Accessibility and Challenges: The main entrances and the Porte d&#8217;Or entrance are accessible without steps, but the narrow corridors inside the palace may pose challenges for visitors with limited mobility.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Admission: Admission to the palace and the peristyle is free; admission to the underground chambers, the cathedral, the Temple of Jupiter, and the cellars requires a fee, which varies by building<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4.

We enjoyed sitting on a terrace there to watch the comings and goings of locals and ferries heading out to the islands.   <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lined with palm trees, caf\u00e9s, and restaurants, this pedestrian promenade connects the old town to the harbor and is the main route to most of the attractions in the city center. In the evenings, you\u2019ll come across everything from impromptu belote players to street musicians. <br\/><a href=\"https:\/\/croatialovers.com\/en\/visit-promenade-riva-split\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"2819\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">See more photos.<\/a><\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Croatia\/Split\/Promenade-Riva-Split-visite-photos\/i-FzqCmG9\/0\/MH97WKSm8QWmxp3v96S5FQM39jb6VJ7SGJp9mPTqr\/L\/palmiers%20promenade%20riva%20split-L.jpg\" alt=\"Riva, the waterfront promenade\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Practical advice<\/h3>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Duration of visit: 30 to 45 minutes on foot, longer if you stop at a terrace<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Opening hours: free access at all times<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Challenges and Access for People with Disabilities: a flat, wide path, accessible to strollers and wheelchairs<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5.

We found it interesting to walk directly from one to the other to appreciate the difference in styles: Pjaca, the medieval heart of the city lined with Gothic and Renaissance facades, followed by Prokurative, a neoclassical square with arcades inspired by St. Mark\u2019s Square in Venice. You\u2019ll get a sense of the different eras that have shaped the city, from the Middle Ages to the Austrian occupation.  <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Croatia\/Split\/Town\/Monuments\/i-DJrRXdL\/0\/LXL6g57LWQkchPM9GZ5dxcSNWHFmcfKJDcHNFbxXf\/L\/Trg_Republike_IMG_7492%202-L.jpg\" alt=\"Place de la R&#xE9;publique\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Place de la R\u00e9publique<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Practical advice<\/h3>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Duration of visit: 30 to 45 minutes for both locations<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Opening hours: free access at all times<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Challenges and Accessibility for People with Disabilities: paved ground, generally flat and accessible<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Directions: a short walk west of the Palace of Diocletian, right in the heart of the historic center<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6.

We enjoyed its setting surrounded by pine trees, which provide natural shade on a summer day. You\u2019ll find a mix of pebbles and concrete here, as well as a beach bar to extend your day. This beach is ideal for those seeking a bit more peace and quiet, while still being within walking distance of downtown and Marjan Park.   <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Croatia\/Split\/Plages\/Kasjuni-Beach\/i-jMzJNLq\/0\/KfMXLwNDzpBBbpbV4c5n5H4ZvjRjcvVw3pcTP8whd\/L\/Kasjuni_Beach_IMG_0305-L.jpg\" alt=\"View of Kasnuji\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Practical advice<\/h3>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Opening hours: free access at all times<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Challenges and Access for People with Disabilities: Access is partially via a trail within Marjan Park; the area is not fully wheelchair-accessible.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Prices: Free; the beach bar charges for drinks on site<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Directions: on the southern slope of Marjan Park, about a 20- to 30-minute walk from downtown<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Parking: A few spots available nearby; limited during peak season<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dining: an on-site beach bar<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7.

We recommend this excursion as a nice change of pace after spending several days exploring the narrow streets of the historic center. You\u2019ll alternate between swimming in the open sea, free time on the islands, and cruising along the coast\u2014usually over the course of a full day. It\u2019s also a chance to see Split from the water, a perspective few visitors think to explore.   <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/photos.smugmug.com\/Croatia\/Split\/Ferry\/i-JBzHQWt\/0\/Lb8JpDTk59qc4SgkKkctfhH2JNncWVWDzK6BR7gh7\/L\/ferry_Hvar_IMG_0858-L.jpg\" alt=\"The shades of blue in the sea around Split\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Practical advice<\/h3>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Schedule: Morning departures from the port of Split; return in the late afternoon<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Directions: Departure from the port of Split, right next to the Riva<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getyourguide.com\/lagon-bleu-split-l129993\/?partner_id=R3GYW4V&amp;cmp=croatia\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">See options and availability<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">8.
