🇭🇷 I Thought Dubrovnik Was Stunning... Until I Visited Split

⭕After driving up the breathtaking Adriatic Highway from Dubrovnik, I discovered Split—a city that trades Dubrovnik's frozen-in-time elegance for California-like vibes: laid-back, sun-soaked, and full of local life. Plus: 💰 More affordable than Dubrovnik. 🤝 Friendlier locals. 🏝️ Better island-hopping options 🌟 Top Experiences 💐 Marjan Hill Viewpoint. Panoramic city/harbor views + resident cats! Book window seats at the hilltop café in advance. 💙 St. Domnius Bell Tower (€7 / €3.5 student). Climb narrow stairs for red-roof vistas (leave big bags behind!). 🌈 Diocletian’s Cellars. Moody underground arches—best at noon (fewer crowds, dramatic light). ⭕ Riva Promenade. Palms, boats, and golden-hour magic. 🍽️ Eat Like a Local 🦞 Muma Food & Bar: Heaping portions of fried seafood & shrimp bisque. (Split’s lower prices = guilt-free seafood feasts!) #Croatia #SplitTravel #AdriaticVibes
