Overview
Treat yourself the way Roman emperors did, with amazing dishes served at their elaborate feasts.
Join our Food and History tour and where we take you to three different places within a 1700-year old imperial palace to taste the most exquisite local food. Explore the palace of Diocletian and pair each new place you otherwise might've missed with a unique Dalmatian flavor!
We start our adventure with a short walk through the center of the palace, on our way to a restaurant known for its handmade makaruni. This delicacy pairs all too well with the local wines of southern Croatia. You will also be presented with the Dalmatian plate of carefully selected prosciutto and cheese, followed up by the authentic UNESCO-recognized soparnik pie.

What to expect
Peristyle, as the central square of the Palace, intended for the Emperor Diocletian celebrated as the living son of Jupiter, finds its place among many temples. The Emperor would appear under the architrave of the central part of Protyron, and his subjects would approach him, kneeling down, kissing the hem of his scarlet cloak, or they would fall in front of him, their entire body to the ground.
Peristyle is closely watched over by a 3500 old and perfectly preserved sphinx, the witness of Split's history in making.
