Iza Vestibula 4, Split
The Ethnographic Museum is housed within the imperial apartments of Diocletian's Palace — the only museum in the world that occupies the living quarters of a Roman emperor — and traces the folk culture of Dalmatia from the 17th century to the present through costumes, textiles, tools, and reconstructed interiors.

5 Kralja Tomislava, Grad, Split, 21000, Croatia

Pazar, Split
The Green Market (Pazar) sits just outside the eastern wall of Diocletian's Palace — an open-air fruit, vegetable, and flower market that has been operating in this location for centuries and provides the most concentrated encounter with Dalmatian produce and the Mediterranean culinary tradition that defines Split's food culture.

Varos Neighbourhood
Varoš, Split, Croatia
Varoš is Split's oldest neighbourhood outside the Roman palace — a hillside tangle of narrow alleys, stone houses, and tiny piazzas that grew up in the 7th century when refugees from the sacked Roman city of Salona settled around the palace walls.
