Guided tour in Diocletian’s Palace
Split is the largest city on the Croatian coast of the Adriatic Sea with a population of 180000. The visit of Split can offer the travelers an extraordinary city tour without any need to take buses to reach the center. Even today as you pass along the south promenade of the Palace, you can feel Diocle’s spirit. You can also feel the light breeze blowing from the sea as it seems to be playing through the openings of the Cryptoporticus, welcoming to this town, travelers for whom as Diocles said, there will always be a bed, food and drink, music and the presence of God.

Conference Trip on Fortress of Klis
The Klis Fortress is a medieval fortress situated above a village bearing the same name, near Split, Croatia. From its origin as a small stronghold built by the ancient Illyrian tribe Dalmatae, becoming a royal castle that was the seat of many Croatian kings, to its final development as a large fortress during the Ottoman wars in Europe, Klis Fortress has guarded the frontier, being lost and re-conquered several times throughout its more-than-two-thousand-year-long history. Due to its location on a pass that separates the mountains Mosor and Kozjak, the fortress served as a major source of defense in Dalmatia. As a part of the conference trip the participants will also have an opportunity to visit Olive museum which is a part of the Stella Croatica complex nearby Klis fortress.
