Dalmatia Series - Trogir

Reason for visiting Trogir? It is on the UNESCO World Heritage list and is one of the best preserved medieval towns in Europe. It is a jewel of a town encased within 15th-century walls. Tiny medieval streets wind through the enchanting town, and a wide sea-side promenade snakes around the town, culminating in a port full of sailboats waiting to take visitors to islands with pristine sand beaches and secluded coves. Trogir boasts a spectacular Venetian cathedral of St Lovro, a 15th century town hall, and the Church of St John with its magnificent carved portal. Just 30 minutes by car is the beautiful city of Split, with its busy commercial port, shops and restaurants all rising from the ruins of the Diocletian Palace.
