INTERNATIONAL ROWING REGATTA OF UNIVERSITY EIGHTS SVETI DUJE Split, as the capital of Dalmatia, is the cultural and economic hub of Central Dalmatia. It grew out of the Palace of a Roman emperor. It was in 295 AD 1700 years ago, that the Roman emperor Gaius Valerius Aurelius Diocletianus started to build his palace in the bay of Aspalathos on the Dalmatian coast, the land where he was born.. After his abdication in 305, the retired emperor left Nicomedia and settled in the palace intending to spend the rest of his life there. The rectangular Diocletian's palaceoccupies an area of about 28.900 square meters. Its 1700 years of living history is protected by the UNESCO and will always fire the interest of visitors and travellers. When it is time to think of holidays and leisure, you will find it hard to imagine a more magnificent natural beauty than that of Dalmatia, where Adriatic Sea meets the highest Mediterranean mountains. The coast and islands are studdened with beaches shaded by thick pine forests, whose freshness seeps out over the shingle to a crystal sea. e-mail: [email protected] Split, Croatia, 05.- 06.
