Diocletian's Palace in Split is the most complete and best-preserved late Roman imperial building complex in the world, a massive 4th-century AD waterfront palace built by Emperor Diocletian as his retirement residence. Today this UNESCO World Heritage Site is a living city within the palace walls, where apartments, restaurants, bars, and a cathedral (converted from Diocletian's mausoleum) fill the ancient cellars and peristyle. Walking the lanes of the palace at dusk, between residents hanging laundry and tourists sipping wine in Roman halls, is one of Europe's most extraordinary experiences.
