Plitvik and beyond

Plitvik Lakes National Park is a 295-sq.-km forest reserve in central Croatia. It's known for a chain of 16 terraced lakes, joined by waterfalls, that extend into a limestone canyon. Walkways and hiking trails wind around and across the water, and an electric boat links the 12 upper and 4 lower lakes (https://np-plitvicka-jezera.hr/). A magical place, get there early to avoid the crowds. And then onward to the historic and enjoyable city of Split.

Part of the old city, Split. Our Air BnB was in there somewhere.

Diocletian's Palace, an ancient palace built for the Roman Emperor Diocletian at the turn of the fourth century AD, that today forms about half the old town of Split.
