The ancient city of Split, Croatia.
Croatia Trip 2018
Cathedral of St. Domnius and its bell tower on the other side of the Peristyle.
Peristyle, an open colonnaded courtyard, was the heart of the Diocletian Palace where the people gathered to see and meet Emperor. It also provided access to the emperor’s quarters, mausoleum and temples. Though the appearance of the Peristyle has changed with time, it still retains its core structure and many features from the Roman era. One of the longer sides of the Peristyle was lined with small medieval palaces that belonged to Split’s noble families while on the opposite side was the Cathedral of St. Domnius (formerly Diocletian’s mausoleum) and its imposing bell tower that dominated the entire old town of Split.
It happens quite often that places from which we do not have a lot of expectations tend to surprise us. Šibenik was one such city in Croatia which we visited without any expectations but ended up being thoroughly charmed by it. As the 12th largest city in Croatia, Šibenik cannot be called a hidden gem, but it often gets overlooked by the tourists visiting the Dalmatian Coast in favour of other famous places like Dubrovnik, Split, Zadar and the islands.
Visit our Blog for the complete itinerary!
We never imagined that we would find the best church in Croatia, also a UNESCO World Heritage Site, in an unheard-of city like Šibenik. The Cathedral of St. James, constructed over 105 years from 1431 to 1536, is unique in the respect that it is the only cathedral in Europe made entirely of stone. As it was built over such a long period, it carries the imprints of multiple architects who used different architectural styles and introduced innovative features in the cathedral. The architect most prominently associated with the cathedral was a local architect Juraj Dalmatinac whose statue stands outside the cathedral in the square. Talking about the square, it was one of the most picturesque of all the squares we had seen in Croatia. It was encircled by the cathedral, green-shuttered stone buildings, and a 16th century town loggia framed by huddled structures rising along the hillside.
