Our journey begins at the picturesque Riva and takes you through the fascinating basement levels of the palace. From there, we discover the most important sights of the palace and learn how the palace of Emperor Diocletian was transformed into a flourishing city.
One of the highlights is the exploration of the Peristyle, an ancient square surrounded by Egyptian columns. The Peristyle was once the center of the palace and still houses a sphinx that bears witness to the greatness of the Roman Empire under Emperor Diocletian.

A particular highlight of the tour is a visit to the breathtaking Vestibule, which was once the entrance hall to Diocletian's private chambers. Today, due to its acoustics, choirs perform traditional Dalmatian klapa music here.
