Split
As Croatia’s second-largest city and one of the oldest cities in the country, Split has its own unique sense of history. Located on the Dalmatian coast of Croatia, it is both a charming port city and an ideal starting point for boat trips to the enchanting Croatian islands. Arriving by boat to Bishevo Island, the Blue Cave is one of the island’s most famous natural wonders. The cave gets its name because when sunlight passes through the white sand below the cave and reflects on the water’s surface, the water inside the cave displays a stunning blue glow. This unique natural phenomenon creates a magical illusion, making it feel like stepping into a completely different world.
Split’s history dates back to the Roman era, making it one of Croatia’s important cultural heritage sites. Here, you can feel the rich cultural atmosphere and long history, with its ancient city exuding a distinctive charm, narrow streets, old buildings, and unique decorations making you feel like you’re in medieval Europe. Walking through the alleys of the old town, you can feel the strong artistic atmosphere and romantic ambiance. For a sunrise view, you can stroll along the seaside promenade, find a suitable spot, and enjoy the beautiful sight of the sun rising gently from the other side of the sea. By the seaside, you can also feel the tranquility of the morning and the gentle breeze, injecting vitality into the new day.
Of course, visiting Split wouldn’t be complete without indulging in delicious Croatian cuisine. Especially their grilled octopus and homemade yogurt are absolutely divine! Each bite captures the warmth of Croatian hospitality and their pursuit of culinary excellence.
