DUBROVNIK, CROATIA
Medieval Dubrovnik, formerly the Republic of Ragusa, was one of several walled cities established in the 7th century to guard the coastal approaches. Its fortification was completed in the 13th century and has remained relatively unchanged.
The city walls are in excellent condition and today prevent invasion by automobiles. Within the walls, the lovely sleek lines of Venetian-style buildings complement a wealth of ancient stone architecture.
Nearby islands feature beautiful beaches as well as intriguing ancient ruins.

SPLIT, CROATIA
Split was first settled when, at the end of the third century AD, the Roman Emperor Diocletian built his palace in the charming city.
The importance of Diocletian's Palace far transcends local significance because of its level of preservation and the buildings of succeeding historical periods found within its walls, which today form the very heart of old Split.
The palace is one of the most famous and integral architectural and cultural constructs on the Croatian Adriatic coast.
The seaport of Split lies on the Dalmation coast. It is the economic and administrative center of Middle Dalmatia, with about 200,000 inhabitants.
KOPER, SLOVENIA
The city reveals its unique story in its architecture, highlights of which are the remains of the main door from the once-grand fortified walls and the many preserved buildings dating from the 15th to the 18th centuries.
