Podrum — Cellars of Diocletian's Palace

The ancient prison, a tangle of underground chambers concealed underneath the Diocletian Palace, is nowadays open only for special events. The main alley that links the cells together, open daily, treats the tourists with an array of picturesque stalls, well-equipped with souvenirs and artworks of any sort.

Shopping

Split has many shops, department stores and a range of small authentic art galleries, souvenir and antique shops in the alleys within the walls of the Palace. In the middle of summer these tiny streets are covered by the shady coolness of the stone walls, making a lengthy shopping trip a pleasure. The spooky basement of the Palace itself has turned into a colourful mixture of art and souvenir stalls.
