Embark on the Echoes of Split: A Sacred and Cultural Odyssey
An emperor once hid from his enemies behind stone walls now buzzing with secrets beneath Split’s Mediterranean sun. Ancient gates creak open to stories buried in marble and whispered down shadowy lanes.
This self-guided audio tour leads deep into Split, beyond tourist crowds, unlocking tales at Diocletian’s Palace, the Benedictine monastery of St. Arnira, Salon Galić and hidden corners overlooked by most. Each stop unravels layers of intrigue, rebellion and vanished glory.
Did the palace’s iron doors once protect a desperate escape? Which silent cloisters witnessed forbidden vows shrouded in rumor? What unfinished painting inside Salon Galić set off a local scandal no one talks about?
Stride through alleyways where echoes of old power struggles clash with everyday life. Move past mosaics and pillars into Split’s heart, forever altered by secrets ready to be unearthed.
Unlock the city’s hidden depths. Your journey into Split’s dramatic soul begins now.
