A variety of Byzantine, Gothic & - at the end of the square - a Habsberg influenced building, create a range of photo opportunities. The Piazza Heritage Hotel stands out not only because of its colorful facade but also its new Viennese architecture calling on the Habsberg empire, regardless of the Piazza dating from 1906. The Clock Tower, Town Hall, Statue of Marko Marulic are all on this beautiful square, along with some bars & restaurants & retail shops. A definite MUST VISIT spot.

We enjoyed a good up hill walk here and amazing views. The park needs a little clean up, but it was definitely one of the best things we did when in Split.

Riva Harbor

Reviewed By Temer2 - Horley, United Kingdom

Split harbour is absolutely beautiful - the stunning turquoise Adriatic sea on one side, a fabulous promenade and restaurants and cafes all along. We only had a day in Split but could easily have spent all the time just wandering along Riva Harbour... We didn't though as Split is such a beautiful place we wanted to see as much as possible. Relaxing and enjoyable location.

Poljud Stadium

Reviewed By VedranCotic - Split, Croatia

I'm a member of a Club, I had a season ticket, and a stock holder as well... I'm going on Poljud 22 years, but this is the first time to visit stadium inside with guide. My girlfriend and friends from Istria came to Split and I wanted to show them a great history of my football club "Hajduk" Split. You can buy tickets in a fan-shop, 35 HRK per person or 5 €. Stadium was built 1979 for a Mediterranean games, it has 35 000 seats, construction is 20 meters inside the earth, so it's very safe stadium. Yes, stadium needs a new face lifting, they said maybe 13 million euros will do everything... Inside they show you all the trophies around the globe, Hajduk was first team in World who visit every continent... Hajduk played big international match 1944 in Bari (Italy) against British Army, it was a big scream in the World, Hajduk is a honorary team of Free France by Charles de Gaulle ! 18 champions titles, many Cups, Supercups, 5 states, many big players... But...you must be in Split on the match, then you'll see "Torcida", the oldest european ultra fan organization, established 1950 ! Our guide was very knowledgeable, very kind and helpful, recommend !

Green Market

Reviewed By MPMKM - Ridgeland, United States

This is a fantastic market. Surrounded by butcher shops the green market has all of the fresh veg and fruits from the surrounding countryside along with artisan made olive oil, cheese and honey. Almost all speak English. I am staying here a month and for a weeks worth of food, fruit veg and meat (beef, chicken and pork) I paid roughly $12.00. That's for 6 days of dinners and lunches. AMAZING.

Absolutely fantastic experience - went in the evening so had place to ourselves, was only a 20-30 minute trip but for the price was completely worth it. The most unique and enjoyment museum I have every been in, as well as learning informative information on the history of the stuffed frogs and their taxidermy! Completely recommend to all if you want a laugh and to learn something new
