Split sightseeing 2

The afternoon session had us return to see the cathedral itself (it was closed in the morning for mass). It was originally built by Diocletian as his mausoleum where he remained for a couple of hundred years before being chucked out when it was converted to a cathedral. The structure is intact with additions in the 7c. Then we went to see the palace cellars which are incredible. Dozens of rooms, large and small, just the service areas of the palace but still beautifully constructed. Some have still not been excavated as they were used as a rubbish dump for centuries. After all this exertion we sat on the harbour front in the sun and had a beer.Okumaya devam et
