Daenerys Targaryen & Diocletian Palace

Remember when Daenerys Targaryen conquered the slave city of Meereen? That was all the Diocletian Palace's interiors, transformed and used for filming specific scenes from her reign. Locations like Peristyle Square, and the cellars you'll visit with your guide, have all been a part of the series. The Diocletian Palace ruins cover most of Split and are divided into quarters, each with specific uses. Visit the Cathedral of Saint Domnius, locally known as St Duje, and one of the best-preserved Roman buildings.
